“La devise d'Averroès, au XIIe siècle, sera celle-ci: on ne peut seul disposer de toute la vérité. C'est la suite des générations et la continuité avérée entre différentes cultures qui en donnent une image: {C'est un devoir pour nous, au cas où nous trouverions chez nos prédécesseurs parmi les peuples d'autrefois, une théorie réfléchie de l'univers, conforme aux conditions qu'exige la démonstration, d'examiner ce qu'ils ont affirmé dans leurs livres.}”
Ali Benmakhlouf, Pourquoi lire les philosophes arabes

Fatema Mernissi
“Happiness, she would explain, was when a person felt good, light, creative, content, loving and loved, and free. An unhappy person felt as if there were barriers crushing her desires and the talents she had inside. A happy woman was one who could exercise all kinds of rights, from the right to move to the right to create, compete, and challenge, and at the same time could be loved for doing so. Part of happiness was to be loved by a man who enjoyed your strength and was proud of your talents. Happiness was also about the right to privacy, the right to retreat from the company of others and plunge into contemplative solitude. Or sit by yourself doing nothing for a whole day, and not give excuses or feel guilty about it either. Happiness was to be with loved ones, and yet still feel that you existed as a separate being, that ou were not just there to make them happy. Happiness was when there was a balance between what you gave and what you took.”
Fatima Mernissi, Dreams Of Trespass: Tales Of A Harem Girlhood

“Les cinq degrés de l'amour******

Les Sufis sont les grands maîtres de l'art d'aimer de la civilisation musulmane. Selon Ad-Daylami, l'amour est une fulgurante source de lumière et " celui qui aime est éclairé dans son génie et illuminé dans sa nature". Cependant, tot amour n'est pas équivalent:
" L'amour dont s'aiment entre eux les humains est de cinq espèces pour cinq catégories différentes [ d'hommes]:

- Un amour divin pour ceux qui sont parvenus à l'unité.
- Un amour intellectuel pour ceux qui possèdent la connaissance.
- Un amour spirituel pour l'élite des hommes.
- Un amour naturel pour la masse des humains.
- Un amour bestial pour les natures abjectes".”
Fatema Mernissi, L'Amour dans les pays musulmans : A travers le miroir des textes anciens

“In the end, forgetting is nothing but turning a page in the book of life. It may seem an easy matter, but as long as you can’t tear it, you will keep on stumbling upon it between each season of your life.”
Nizar Qabbani

“To be alive is to move around, to search for better places, to scavenge the planet looking for more hospitable islands.”
Fatima Mernissi
