CHOICES
4. 'You were born with wings. Why prefer to crawl through life?' - Mev Lana ad-Din Rumi
CRYING
5. Heaven knows we need not be ashamed of our tears, for they are rain upon the blinding dust of earth, overlying our hard hearts. I was better after I had cried, than before - more sorry, more aware of my own ingratitude, more gentle. - Charles Dickens ( Great Expectations )
DANGER
6. It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong - Voltaire
DEBATE

FRIEND
8. A friend cannot be considered a friend until he is tested in three occasions: in time of need, behind your back and after your death - Ali ibn Abi Talib
FORGIVENESS
9. 'My sin burdened me heavily. But when I measured it against Your Grace, O Lord, Your forgiveness came out greater' - Imam Shafii
JIHAD
10. 'Declare your Jihad on 13 hidden enemies: Egotysm, Arrogance, Conceit, Selfishness, Greed, Lust, Intolerance, Anger, Lying, Cheating, Gossiping and Slandering. If you can master and destroy them, then you will be ready to fight the enemy you can see.' - Imam al Ghazali
LEADERSHIP
11. Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership. - Colin Powell
MISTAKES
13. Every human being makes mistakes, but when he has made a mistake, that man who remedies the evil is no longer foolish and unhappy - Sophocles ( Antigone )
14. Bagi orang jahat, meskipun bencana belum dating tapi rezeli telah menjauhinya. Tapi bagi orang yang berbuat baik, meskipun rezeki belum dating tetapi bencana telah menjauhinya. - Pepatah China
PERSPECTIVE
15. What I need is perspective .... Otherwise you live with your face squashed against a wall, everything a huge foreground, of details, close-ups, hairs, the weave of the bed-sheet, the molecules of the face. Margaret Atwood ( The Handmaid's Tale )
SEEING
16. It is the obvious that is so difficult to see most of the time. People say 'It's as plain as the nose on your face.' But how much of the nose on your face can you see, unless someone holds a mirror up to you? - Isaac Asimov ( I, Robot )
TEACHING
17. Pejuang Muslim adalah seorang guru, yang mestinya memiliki semua sifat yang ada pada seorang guru: cahaya, hidayah, rahmat dan kelemahlembutan. - Hasan Al Banna
THINKING
18. Minds are like parachutes; they work best when open. - Lord Thomas Dewey
UNITY
19. Marilah kita bersatu untuk menghadapi musuh bersama kerana pada suatu titik waktu kritikal, kita haruus melupakan pertelingkahan peribadi kita."
