Muslims must believe that all power, success and victory comes from God alone.
Abu Bakar Bashir

Yair Lapid

In a way, 'On the Road's greatest victory is that nobody's eyes will be opened any longer by reading it; the last time I met any young people who were actually 'on the road' was when I covered Occupy St. Louis. Those few, dirty kids were fighting a battle even they couldn't articulate.
Tony D'Souza

Timothy Murphy
