“I think sadness prevails in Syria now. We don’t feel anything else but sadness because we have this killing every day, whether with chemical or any other kind.”

Any cooperation that doesn’t go through the Syrian government is not legal. If it’s not legal, we cannot cooperate with, and we don’t recognize and we don’t accept.

If the American administration want to support Al-Qaeda – go ahead. That’s what we have to tell them, go ahead and support Al-Qaeda, but don’t talk about rebels and free Syrian army.

The armament of the government is legal armament. Any other armament is not legal.

It is natural that we should always expect an Israeli attack, even when it does not threaten.

At the end, I said [chemical weapons] is something not to be discussed with anyone.

Why should you use a term [rebels] in the United States and England and maybe other countries and use another term in Syria ? This is a double standard that we don’t accept.

If you want to talk about mistakes, every country has mistakes, every government has mistakes, every person has mistakes. When you have a war, you have more mistakes. That’s the natural thing.

We are fully free, not partially, fully free, in everything related to the future of Syria.

We’re talking about the responsibility, my responsibility according to the Syrian constitution that said we have to defend ourselves.

We feel pain for every Syrian victim.

Hizbullah is not a militia.

We’re not sure that if there’s chemical weapon used and who used it. We can’t talk about virtual things, we have to talk about facts.

The army is made of the people ; it cannot be made of robots.

We are against any WMD, any weapons of mass destruction, whether chemical or nuclear.

History teaches us that nobody can prevent a resistance group from arming when it has the support of the people.

Israeli interests are not necessarily in harmony with the American interests.

All unhappiness is due to the ego. With it comes all your trouble. If you would deny the ego and scorch it by ignoring it you would be free.

This might sound masochistic or narcissistic‚ I don’t know‚ but when I’m not playing the game‚ the validations I feel about life are always through the hardships. I relate more to sadness‚ in a lot of ways‚ when I’m not playing.

I want to wade into the water on the sidewalk, crawl out of this feeling without giving it a name. Take a lighter to love’s sticky edges so its sadness isn’t caught in my throat.

You are the sand that doesn’t stick when I am dry and sad.

You are sad in the midst of every blessing. Take care that Fortune does not observe–or she will call you ungrateful.

I overwhelmingly write from sadness – in songs, in prose, in verse.

There was something in her eyes that drew me in. I wanted to make the sadness she tried to hide go away.” -Cage York

People are in control of their choices and sad to say we are not chosen.
