Selfishness, my brother,is the cause of blind superiority, and superority creates clanship, and clanship creates authority which leads to discord and subjugation. The soul believes in the power of knowledge and justice over dark ignorance; it denies the authority that supplies the sword to defend and strengthen ignorance and oppression-that authority which destroyed Babylon and shook the foundation of jerusalem and left Rome in ruins.It is that which made people call criminals great men; made writers respect their names;made historians relate the stories of their inhumanity in manner of praise . Kahlil Gibran
