## Quotes

* Today the Khokhars are Split up into Muslim, Rajput and Jat sections. Originally they were all Hindus. Both Minhaj Siraj and Hasan Nizami describe them as infidels.“ The tale of their resistance to Islam and conversion to it synchronises with the Muslim invasions of India.
** Lal, K. S. (1995). Growth of scheduled tribes and castes in medieval India.
* Great plunder was taken and many captives, so that five Hindu [Khokhar] captives could be bought for a dinar.
* The Khokhars were not annihilated in this affair by any means, and gave great trouble in after years...
** Minhaj "Tabakat-i-nasiri" also in Lal, K. S. (1995). Growth of scheduled tribes and castes in medieval India.
* Mahmud protected his flanks with entrenchments and instead of following his usual impetuous tactics strove to entice the enemy to attack him in his own strong position. In this he succeeded and the Hindus attacked on December 31. A force of 30,000 Khokars, bareheaded and barefooted and armed with strange weapons, charged both his flanks simultaneously, passed over his trenches, and did such execution among his troops that he was meditating a retreat when a fortunate accident decided the day in his favour.
** "The Cambridge History Of India Volume III" also in Lal, K. S. (1995). Growth of scheduled tribes and castes in medieval India.
* The Kokars were completely defeated, and, " in that country there remained not an inhabitant to light a fire." " Much spoil in slaves and weapons, beyond all enumeration, fell into the possession of the victors."

* For instance, when Muhammad Ghauri and Qutbuddin Aibak mounted a combined attack on the Khokhars of the Salt Range (Koh-i-Jud), “great plunder was taken and many captives, so that five Hindu [Khokhars] captives could be bought for a dinar”. Captives were so plentiful that they were also sent “to sell in Khurasan, not long after.”

# Khosrow Bagheri

Khosrow Bagheri Noaparast (born 1957) is an Iranian philosopher, educational theorist and the president of Philosophy of Education Society of Iran (PESI).

## Quotes

* Human beings learn from their errors and error during a process can have educational effect, but why the humans make the mistakes? Because the process of education is the one of learning from errors. It means that the ones make the mistakes and this gives them the power of motivational ability.
** Website of Mehr News Agency, 2017
* There has been the conflict between science and religion. Science was the interpretation from the past that is considered today as hermeneutics, but the conflict concerns the experimental science. If we ask the scientists what is the science, they will not have a correct answer. Because they are so concerned with this issue that they can also be far from it. It is said that "human knows more than what he says". This indicates the existence of the implicit knowledge in the humans. The essence of science is ambiguous.

* I never was against wearing fur because I truly did not know how these animals were tortured and killed in order to have these coats and accessories. I am done with fur forever and I have now found so many amazing faux fur lines that are great alternatives for women who love the look and love animals. I love that PETA is all about individuals taking baby steps in becoming aware of animal rights. I am not a full vegetarian but I have not eaten red meat or pork in over 10 years. … I am also extremely careful now not to purchase products that are tested on animals.

# Hanif

In Islam, a ḥanīf (Arabic: حنيف, romanized: ḥanīf; plural: حنفاء, ḥunafā'), meaning "renunciate", is someone who maintains the pure monotheism of the patriarch Abraham. More specifically, in Islamic thought, renunciates were the people who, during the pre-Islamic period (or Jahiliyyah), were seen to have renounced idolatry and retained some or all of the tenets of the religion of Abraham (إبراهيم), which was submission to God in its purest form.

## Quotes

* Abraham used to worship the idol, i.e., the one named al-Uzza in Harran, as a hanif, as you agree, O you hanif….He abandoned al-hanifiyya, which is the worship of idols, and became a monotheist….Therefore we find al-hanifiyya in God’s revealed scriptures as a name for the worship of idols.

Hank Williams (September 17, 1923 – January 1, 1953) was an American singer, guitarist, and songwriter, who has become an icon of country music, Rock 'n' Roll and one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century.

## Quotes

* A good song is a good song, and if I'm lucky enough to write it, well....! I get more kick out of writing than I do singing. I reckon I've written a thousand songs and had over 300 published.
** Gleason, Ralph (06-28-1969). 1952 interview of Hank Williams. Rolling Stone.
* [The country singer] sings more sincere than most entertainers, because the hillbilly was raised tougher than most entertainers. The people who has been raised something like the way the hillbilly has, knows what he is singing about and appreciates it. For what he is singing, is the hopes, and prayers, and dreams and experiences of what some call the "common people." I call them the "best people," because they are the ones that the world is made up most of. They're really the ones who make things tick, wherever they are in this country, or in other country.

## About

* When I wrote about Hank Williams 'A hundred floors above me in the tower of song', it's not some kind of inverse modesty. I know where Hank Williams stands in the history of popular song. Your Cheatin' Heart, songs like that, are sublime, in his own tradition, and I feel myself a very minor writer.
** Leonard Cohen, Who held a gun to Leonard Cohen's head? The Guardian (2006-06-20)
* I became aware that in Hank's recorded songs were the archetype rules of poetic songwriting. The architectural forms are like marble pillars and they had to be there. Even his words - all of the syllables are divided up so they make perfect mathematical sense. You can learn a lot about the structure of songwriting by listening to his records.

*** Alternative source: Joris-Karl Huysmans. Against Nature. Penguin books.
* Baudelaire had supper at the table next to ours. He was without a cravat, his shirt open at the neck and his head shaved, just as if he were to be guillotined. A single affectation: his little hands washed and cared for, the nails kept scrupulously clean. The face of a maniac, a voice that cuts like a knife, and a precise elocution that tries to copy Saint-Just and succeeds.
** Pages from the Goncourt Journals
* We asked ourselves whether, in these days of equality in which we live, there are classes unworthy the notice of the author and the reader, misfortunes too lowly, dramas too foul-mouthed, catastrophes too commonplace in the terror they inspire.
** Germinie Lacerteux
* She was, so to speak, an impersonal creature, because of her great heart; a woman who did not belong to herself: God seemed to have made her only to give her to others.

* There is nothing so beautiful as the free forest. To catch a fish when you are hungry, cut the boughs of a tree, make a fire to roast it, and eat it in the open air, is the greatest of all luxuries. I would not stay a week pent up in cities, if it were not for my passion for art.

## Quotes

* It is important that we not fall into a social activism which can become a type of neo-pelagianism. Our work is always the work of God. We maintain a balance between our work and the action of God's grace, above all, by prayer - not only liturgical prayer but also personal prayer. I do not think we can overemphasize the importance of personal prayer, especially in our world today.
