God and Nature first made us what we are, and then out of our own creative genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit, and Eternity our measurement. There is no height to which we cannot climb by using the active intelligence of our own minds. Mind creates, and as much as we desire in Nature we can have through the creation of our own minds.
– The Most Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Jr.
Islam is a very simple faith. It requires man to recognize his duties toward God Allah, his Creator and his fellow creatures. It teaches the supreme duty of living at peace with one’s surroundings. It is preeminently the religion of peace. The very name, Islam, means peace. The goal of a man’s life, according to Islam, is peace with everything. Peace with Allah and peace with man.
– The Noble Prophet Drew Ali
No nation will ever respect us as long as we beg for that which we can do for ourselves.
– The Messenger, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad
