I believe that the people, instead of pretty lies, should be told the truth, no matter how ugly it may be. What can we do, destiny hasn't been kind to us; but, with the help of God, we will prevail.
A starry sky is equally interesting to a scientist, a mystic, an ethics scholar, and a poet. Looking at the stars, each experiences something different, and each sees his own picture.
The ninth, the worst circle of the Inferno - Dante intended it for traitors.
Our goal: the Islamization of Muslims. Our methods: to believe and to struggle.
I took revenge on hardship from my earlier life by forgetting it.
Islam is a way of living rather than a way of thinking.
Bosnia is a complicated country: three religions, three nations and those 'others'. Nationalism is strong in all three nations; in two of them there are a lot of racism, chauvinism, separatism; and now we are supposed to make a state out of that.
All man's failures are either because of the religious denial of man's biological needs or the materialistic denial of man's spiritual desires.
Life is a dangerous thing. Insecurity is the price of living.
To seek trouble - this is not courage, this is madness. Courage is the willingness of man to sensibly face the troubles he cannot avoid.
All in all this is a difficult political struggle which will go on for years, in which our people won't die anymore; I'm not sure how much we will be able to win, but I'm certain that we won't loose anything that we have now.
Religion, as it is understood in the West, does not lead toward progress, and science does not lead toward humanism.
The international community is pushing things forward in Bosnia... but it is doing it at expense of the Muslim people. I feel it as an injustice, these are the things that I cannot live with.
Advantages of freedom do not have to be proved by something outside freedom itself. It is its own underwriter.
As far as the sovereignty of Bosnia-Hercegovina is concerned we agreed to have limited sovereignty for a limited time and that is clear from the Dayton Agreement.
It is difficult to help a man without hurting his pride. Everyone wants to be a giver and not a receiver.
I would sacrifice peace in order to win sovereignty for Bosnia, but for that peace in Bosnia, I would not sacrifice sovereignty.
We have no rational evidence that there exists another world, but we have a clear feeling that man does not exist only to produce and to consume.
In these negotiations we are not a helpless object, although great world powers are involved. We play an active role and try to influence our destiny; we have our own trump cards and we use them.
We Bosniaks would for sure fight for integrity of Bosnia.
