    A beetle will chase after an opening of light, while a cockroach will scatter at a crack of it. How are we different from insects? Nobody is purely good or purely evil. Most of us are in-between. There are moths that explore the day and butterflies that play at night. Polarity is an integral part of nature — human or not human.

    A good man will never harm or oppress another. A good man will share his last morsel of food with others in need, and die of hunger when he no longer has any food -- instead of cheat or steal from others to survive. Selflessness. Humility. Truthfulness. These are the three marks of an honorable man.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #6

    A great leader must serve the best interests of the people first, not those of multinational corporations. Human life should never be sacrificed for monetary profit. There are no exceptions.

    A HEART OF LAPIS

    The most beautiful stones adorn my neck
    Like an Ancient Egyptian collar.
    Two glistening balls of onyx sit on top
    Followed by a double stretch of coral.
    At the center is a lapis heart,
    Deeper in color than the Red Sea waters
    And I am so grateful for this heavenly gift
    This precious necklace is
    My daughter.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #8

    A heart without dreams is like a bird without feathers.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #9

    A human being can only take so much when their basic rights as a citizen of the earth are being denied to them – or sold at a high cost.

    A JEWELRY STORE NAMED INDIA

    If you hold this
    Dazzling emerald
    Up to the sky,
    It will shine a billion
    Beautiful miracles
    Painted from the tears
    Of the Most High.
    Plucked from the lush gardens
    Of a yellowish-green paradise,
    Look inside this hypnotic gem
    And a kaleidoscope of
    Titillating,
    Soul-raising
    Sights and colors
    Will tease and seduce
    Your eyes and mind.

    Tell me, sir.
    Have you ever heard
    A peacock sing?
    Hold your ear
    To this mystical stone
    And you will hear
    Sacred hymns flowing
    To the vibrations
    Of the perfumed
    Wind.

    A lion does not flinch at laughter coming from a hyena. A gorilla does not budge from a banana thrown at it by a monkey. A nightingale does not stop singing its beautiful song at the intrusion of an annoying woodpecker.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #12

    A lion of truth never assumes anything without validity. Assumptions are quick exits for lazy minds that like to graze out in the fields without bother.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #13

    A man of God would never burn or harm a temple of any kind - regardless of religion. A true man of God would see every temple or divine mansion built to glorify the Creator - as an extension of the temple closest to his home, regardless of its shape, size, or color. A man who truly recognizes and knows God can see God in all things.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #14

    A man who tells you to follow him will turn his followers into his company, while a true leader who does not tell you to follow him, will sit in the company of his followers.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #15

    A man who tells you to follow him, will turn his followers into his company. While a true leader, who does not tell you to follow him, will sit in the company of his followers.

    A memorable heart is the easiest way to immortality.

    A NATION'S GREATNESS DEPENDS ON ITS LEADER

    To vastly improve your country and truly make it great again, start by choosing a better leader. Do not let the media or the establishment make you pick from the people they choose, but instead choose from those they do not pick. Pick a leader from among the people who is heart-driven, one who identifies with the common man on the street and understands what the country needs on every level. Do not pick a leader who is only money-driven and does not understand or identify with the common man, but only what corporations need on every level.

    Pick a peacemaker. One who unites, not divides. A cultured leader who supports the arts and true freedom of speech, not censorship. Pick a leader who will not only bail out banks and airlines, but also families from losing their homes -- or jobs due to their companies moving to other countries. Pick a leader who will fund schools, not limit spending on education and allow libraries to close. Pick a leader who chooses diplomacy over war. An honest broker in foreign relations. A leader with integrity, one who says what they mean, keeps their word and does not lie to their people. Pick a leader who is strong and confident, yet humble. Intelligent, but not sly. A leader who encourages diversity, not racism. One who understands the needs of the farmer, the teacher, the doctor, and the environmentalist -- not only the banker, the oil tycoon, the weapons developer, or the insurance and pharmaceutical lobbyist.

    Pick a leader who will keep jobs in your country by offering companies incentives to hire only within their borders, not one who allows corporations to outsource jobs for cheaper labor when there is a national employment crisis. Choose a leader who will invest in building bridges, not walls. Books, not weapons. Morality, not corruption. Intellectualism and wisdom, not ignorance. Stability, not fear and terror. Peace, not chaos. Love, not hate. Convergence, not segregation. Tolerance, not discrimination. Fairness, not hypocrisy. Substance, not superficiality. Character, not immaturity. Transparency, not secrecy. Justice, not lawlessness. Environmental improvement and preservation, not destruction. Truth, not lies.

    Most importantly, a great leader must serve the best interests of the people first, not those of multinational corporations. Human life should never be sacrificed for monetary profit. There are no exceptions. In addition, a leader should always be open to criticism, not silencing dissent. Any leader who does not tolerate criticism from the public is afraid of their dirty hands to be revealed under heavy light. And such a leader is dangerous, because they only feel secure in the darkness. Only a leader who is free from corruption welcomes scrutiny; for scrutiny allows a good leader to be an even greater leader.

    And lastly, pick a leader who will make their citizens proud. One who will stir the hearts of the people, so that the sons and daughters of a given nation strive to emulate their leader's greatness. Only then will a nation be truly great, when a leader inspires and produces citizens worthy of becoming future leaders, honorable decision makers and peacemakers. And in these times, a great leader must be extremely brave. Their leadership must be steered only by their conscience, not a bribe.

    A person who is truly cool is a work of art. And remember, original works of art cost exponentially higher than imitations. Just take a look at the the coolest people in history. They will always be a part of history for being extremely original individuals, not imitations.

    A pineapple is a compilation of berries that grow and fuse together. When joined, they create a single fruit. And within each eyelet, contains a location where a flower may grow. I see the Creator of all existence as the crown on a pineapple, and all religions of the world as the spiky eyelets, where each eyelet symbolizes a different religion or race under the same crown. Each garden of faith may have different perspectives of God, yet every garden belongs to the same God.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #20

    A truly good person will speak truth, act with truth, and stand for Truth. A truly good person is not afraid to think from their heart; therefore, allowing nonconformist decisions, viewpoints, and perspectives to lead their life. By following their heart, they stand with their conscience, and only with God.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #21

    A wealth of knowledge is openly accessible in nature. Our ancestors knew this and embraced the natural cures found in the bosoms of the earth. Their classroom was nature. They studied the lessons to be learned from animals, knowing that much of human behavior can be explained by watching the wild beasts around us. Animals are constantly teaching us things about ourselves and the way of the universe, but most people are too blind to watch and listen.

    A woman who holds her head up too high, is trying to breathe from her own pollution.

    ACTS OF LOVE

    Love is not a word
    Or a thought.
    It is the name for
    An action
    That breathes from its light.
    What do you
    DO
    In Love's name?
    And is it only done
    Outside
    In the light?
    Or with an inner
    Flame
    Illuminating
    Love's
    TRUE
    Name?

    I want to know.

    Are your actions
    Done by remote
    Or with
    SOUL?
    And when you say
    You love someone,
    Does a light go off
    Inside at all?

    What have
    YOU
    Done
    In the
    Name of
    LOVE?

    Because,
    Really,
    I want to know.

    AFTER SCHOOL SPECIAL


    Dear Mr. Schneider,
    I attended your elementary
    School almost thirty years ago
    And I'm very sure that
    You will remember
    Me.

    My name is Suzy.
    I'm that hyperactive girl
    From the Egyptian family
    Who used to always play dead
    On the playground during
    Recess.

    You used to keep me
    After school a lot,
    And then my father would
    Force me to make the long
    Walk home in the cold or rain.
    Sometimes I would arrive
    After dark.

    I'm writing to tell you
    That I was bored as a kid.
    I was bored by your curriculum
    And the way I was always taught a
    Bunch of useless
    Junk.

    I did not like being locked up
    In a prison of scheduled time
    Learning about irrelevant material,
    And watching belittling cartoons and
    Shows approved by academia that
    Made me even more
    Bored.

    As a kid
    Who was constantly
    Growing, evolving, and
    Being shaped by all around me,
    I wanted to travel,
    See other kids
    In the world like me,
    To understand what was going
    On amongst us and around us,
    To know what we were here for
    And what was our real purpose
    For existence.

    I have some questions
    I would like to ask you, Mr. Schneider,
    Now that I know that you are no
    Longer a school principal,
    But the new superintendent
    Of the entire school
    District.

    I want to know
    Why racism today
    Was not clearly explained to me
    Even though we covered events
    That happened long ago.
    I want to know why you
    Never shared with us
    Why other countries
    Never liked us,
    Why we are taught to compete,
    To be divided in teams,
    And why conformity is associated
    With popularity, while
    Eccentricity is considered
    Undesirable?

    I want to know
    Why my cafeteria lunches
    Were slammed packed
    With bottom-tier
    Processed junk food
    Only suitable
    For pigs?
    And why is it
    That whenever a bully
    Slammed a kid into a locker for
    His lunch money,
    Nobody explained to us
    That egotism, selfishness and greed
    Were the seeds of
    War?

    I want to know
    Why we were never taught
    To stick up for each other,
    To love one another, and that
    Segregation sorted by the
    Occupations of our fathers,
    The neighborhoods we lived in, our houses,
    Choices of sport, wealth, clothing,
    Color of our skin
    And the texture of our hair
    Should never, ever
    Divide us?

    And lastly,
    I want to know why
    Is it that whenever I pledged
    Allegiance to the flag,
    I was never told that I was
    Actually hailing to the
    Chief?

    You used to say that
    I was a troubled child,
    A misfit, and that I needed
    Obedience training,
    But you never acknowledged that
    I was the fastest runner in the district
    And that I took the school
    To State and Nationals to compete
    In the Spelling Bee among kids
    Grades higher than me.
    And that it was me,
    Who won that big trophy
    That sat in your office when you
    Used to detain me for hours
    And tell me I was no
    Good.

    Mr. Schneider,
    If we are not taught truths as kids,
    Then how do you expect us to
    Grow up to be truthful citizens?
    If we are only being taught the written way,
    And it has not shown positive effects
    In societies of yesterday or today,
    Then how can we progress as a
    United and compassionate
    Nation?
    What good is it,
    To memorize the histories
    Of our forefathers,
    Without learning what could be
    Gained from their lessons and mistakes
    To improve our future
    Tomorrows?


    And finally,
    I want to thank you;
    For I know you have a tough job
    Dealing with rebellious children like me.
    Your job of mass processing and boxing
    The young minds of America has not been an easy one,
    And I congratulate you
    On your recent promotion.
    But I sincerely want to thank you,
    Thank you,
    And thank you,
    For always pointing out
    That I was
    Different.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #25

    All men and women on earth were created with two eyes. The left eye represents the moon (mind/ego) and the right eye represents the sun (heart/conscience). Both eyes represent the duality of human nature. The sun represents the light in the heart of man, and the moon represents the darkness in the mind of man. When you read in ancient and religious scriptures that the enemy of humanity will surface with only one eye, this simply means that this being will only see through his left eye and neglect the right. And without the light of the right eye, this being will be very dark and evil.

    Always be in command of your music. If life throws you a few bad notes or vibrations, don't let them interrupt or alter your song.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #27

    Always be respectful and open-minded when listening to another man's beliefs. What you reject today could be your mantra tomorrow. Man's evolution is all about transformations. An unexpected experience you have one day can change you forever.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #28

    Always have faith in yourself and the universe, for one will not get you anywhere without the other. Both must be equally strong to reach your desires, for they are the wings that will lift you to your dreams.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #29

    Always judge a man by the coloring of his heart and only his heart. Truth can be found in his record of actions, not intentions.

  • Suzy Kassem Quote #30

    Always listen to the voice of your conscience. If your conscience conflicts with your faith, question everything.
