But the Mussulmans took all; all vanished, and we remained defenceless; yea, like a widow after the death of a powerful husband: defenceless was our land as well as ourselves! Such was the time, comrades, when we joined hands in a brotherhood: that is what our fellowship consists in.

There is no more sacred brotherhood.

The father loves his children, the mother loves her children, the children love their father and mother; but this is not like that, brothers.

The wild beast also loves its young.

But a man can be related only by similarity of mind and not of blood.
