Quotes from Mehmet Murat Ildan

Ahlaks?z bir bask?n?n oldu?u her ülkede, bar??ç?l ve sürekli bir sivil itaatsizlik

Alexander the Great once said that 'I would rather live a short life of glory than a long one of obscurity!' What a great illusion is this! Wise man is he who always chooses to live longer and he who blesses the obscurity!

All countries must be governed by the modern people; they must be governed by the progressive people; they must be governed by those who believe in the reason and science; they must be governed by the compassionate and just, by the ethical and honest, by the nonviolent and peaceful people; they must be governed by the libertarians; they must be governed by the people who believe in the enlightenment and who refuse to shape the society based on some childish religious stories!

All cultures have things to learn from all other cultures. Don't get stuck in your culture! Go beyond it! Get out of your aquarium; get out of your farm; get out of your castle; break your bell jar! Give chance to other cultures and to other opinions! This is the best way for you to see the insufficiencies, absurdities and stupidities in your culture!

All good that you have done for the humanity, keep it like a secret; do your goodness in the shadow! Let one day others find this secret, preferably long after you have passed away!

All governments like the ignorant, because their existence depends on them! If the society becomes wise, governments cannot survive, at least the bad ones cannot!

All is flux, nothing stays still, as Heraclitus said. By the time I wrote this, everything has changed in the universe; everything but the taste of the cakes baked at home!

All life passes like a fast flowing river and how strange to see that happiness increases this speed! Yes, a happy life passes faster!

All man must live in Machu Picchu for some time! Over there, you will be closer to the universe and you will realise how trivial you are in this chaotic cosmos. Science is the only power which will make you bigger and significant in this universe!

All men leave the harbour of youth, but only few reach the very far island of wisdom!

All men start life as a road-user and only few continue it as a road-creator!

All the beautiful corners of the world are the greatest mind and body healers!

All the buildings of justice will remain idle on the day when all men have high conscience!

All the creatures living on Earth behave more or less the same way!

All the donkeys I knew had small ears!

All the great feelings like goodness, love or compassion eliminate the gravity and thus the wingless man rises like a bird.

All the roads of the haughty man lead to arrogance!

All the sands of the world even when they unite together cannot create the hardness of a single rock!

All the streams carry the wisdom of the forest to the lake, and over there, silence replaces the noise!

All the world is believers! They just believe in different absurdities!

All the World's a Stage, as master Shakespeare said, and All the Other World's a Fake, as master Science said!

All truths can be changed! Put this brave idea to the centre of your beliefs! All truths can be changed!

All we do in our lifetime is to scream in different ways to get attention in this dark universe!

All we do is to rise and to fall; and in between these two activities, we sleep!
