## Quotes

* There was Molly Sullivan's wreath-twigs interspersed with small bits of typewritten paper — which was said to symbolize the "challenge of expressing natural phenomena through the written word." Of all the artists to have grappled with this age-old dilemma, Sullivan was perhaps the first to do so with a wreath.
** "Wreaths: the demure symbol of Christmas" by Bryan Curtis for Slate Magazine
* And of all the artists to have grappled with this age-old dilemma, Sullivan was perhaps the first to do so with a wreath of peace, and also goodwill for all, symbolising what Christmas truly means.
** "Wreaths: the key of Christmas" by John Goss for The Seven Days
* Weave garlands, maiden, from the strands Of dill, and with soft gentle hands Set the delicious leafage round your head. The Goddess and the happy Graces Love to look on flower-crown’d faces, But turn aside from the ungarlanded.
** Sappho, frag. qtd. by Athenaeus, xv, 674d. Tr. C. M. Bowra, OBGVT (1938), p. 207

## Quotes

# Andrea Peyser

Andrea Peyser is a New York Post columnist.

## Quotes

* I asked if this obsession with foreskin is healthy, much less worthy of a movement modeled on the struggle for human rights. Clearly, some men harbor deep-seated issues regarding their members. I can’t help but agree with the babe characters on the TV show “Sex and the City” who, with the exception of slutty Samantha, enthused that shafts devoid of hoods were more pleasant to gaze upon and touch than intact ones. I just hope that guys who spend their lives feeling wounded by circumcision, and the women who enable them, find new hobbies.
** 25 January 2016 in Circumcision ‘intactivists’ don’t want you (or your kids) to get snipped

## About

* Peyser questioned intactivist Anthony Losquadro whether the obsession with foreskin is healthy. From outside, it is quite clear that the American society is obsessed with foreskin – with removing it! Similarly, when some Jewish people claim that circumcision is vital to Jewish identity, they are also being obsessed with foreskin – with removing it. Whatever kind of penis Peyser enjoys gazing upon and touching should not have any relevance to what surgeries her children or any children are subjected to. She closes the article by hoping that “guys who spend their lives feeling wounded by circumcision, and the women who enable them, find new hobbies“. We counter that we hope that men and women who make their livelihood by cutting normal healthy genital tissue from non-consenting minors are the ones who should find another career, especially including those mohels in Peyser’s natal Queens who feel that their religion entitles them to suck blood with their mouths out of infant penises they just cut.

## Quotes

* I would never ask an actor to do something that I wouldn't do. So I was right there with them. I would cry with them. I would be angry with them. I would yell with them. I would do everything first so that they could see that it's okay to do it that broad.

## Quotes

* Even when we talk about such incidents, we still refer to them as 'victims'. Referring to them as survivors is a recent phenomenon. Most women are victimised by their families. In fact, I'd pick being murdered over being raped because of the stigmas associated with the latter.

* Casting couch is not just a man's fault. It is important to say this because we blame the other side always. If women are not willing to sleep for work, then they won't ask for it. A woman should have the confidence and say 'I believe myself and I won't sleep with anyone'... then casting couch will not exist.

## Quotes

* Isolation is not a new situation for Japanese Christians, it was like that even at the time of persecutions: even then they could not meet in churches, but they carried on faith in families. Today faced with the threat of the coronavirus and the impossibility of celebrating the Eucharist from a liturgical point of view, Christians, once again, are showing that faith can be equally lived in a profound way.

### Poem addressed to the People of Egypt

* The edge of the sword is far more curing to the sick It is worthier to attain the right when it is neede. Do you not see me seeking comfort for the night journey? So I established by the order of God, as it should be. I have been patient, and patience leads to success Perhaps the intelligent person will be hasty, and therefore he made mistake and missed the mark Until God wanted to strengthen his faith. So I established by the order of God, as the muhtāsīb does. And I called the call of one who is certain about the generous God to the peoples of the West: He who believes in Him will never fail. They came quickly to join a noble and generous one Descended from Arabs, paying him allegiance. I have come on the horses of God to your land And the face of death has appeared to me from behind the screen I sent more ambling noble horses Led by men like lions. Their banner is my grandfather's, their call my father's And their belief is mine, near and far. Praise be to God! You know what occurred: I won with the striking, devastating, victorious arrow. That is my character–as long as I live– and yours. There it is, a war raging like a blaze.
** Quoted in article The Origins of Fatimid Αrt, Muqarnas, Vol. 3 (1985), p. 26

# Al-Shabaab

Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen (HSM) (Arabic: حركة الشباب المجاهدين‎; Ḥarakat ash-Shabāb al-Mujāhidīn, Somali: Xarakada Mujaahidiinta Alshabaab, "Mujahideen Youth Movement" or "Movement of Striving Youth"), more commonly known as al-Shabaab (Arabic: الشباب‎), meaning "The Youth", or "The Youngsters", is a jihadist group based in Somalia founded by Ahmed Godane. In 2012, it pledged allegiance to the militant Islamist organization Al-Qaeda.
As of 2013, the group has retreated from the major cities, but imposes strict forms of Sharia law in some rural regions. Al-Shabaab's troop strength as of 2013 was estimated at 4,000 to 6,000 militants. In February 2012, some of the group's leaders quarreled with Al-Qaeda over the union, and quickly lost ground.

# Al-Tirmidhi

Abū ʿĪsā Muḥammad ibn ʿĪsā as-Sulamī aḍ-Ḍarīr al-Būghī at-Tirmidhī (Arabic: أبو عيسى محمد بن عيسى السلمي الضرير البوغي الترمذي‎; Persian: ترمذی‎, Termezī; 824 – 9 October 892), often referred to as Imām al-Termezī/Tirmidhī, was a Persian Islamic scholar, and collector of hadith from Termez (early Khorasan and in present-day Uzbekistan). He wrote al-Jami` as-Sahih (known as Jami` at-Tirmidhi), one of the six canonical hadith compilations in Sunni Islam. He also wrote Shama'il Muhammadiyah (popularly known as Shama'il at-Tirmidhi), a compilation of hadiths concerning the person and character of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad. At-Tirmidhi was also well versed in Arabic grammar, favoring the school of Kufa over Basra due to the former's preservation of Arabic poetry as a primary source.
