the prime minister of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan. He was

Erdogan was depicted as a pet dog being patted by president
Bush.
- I am
God's Lion, not the lion of passion. I have no longing except
for the One. When a wind of personal reaction comes, I do
not go along with it. There are many winds full of anger,
and lust and greed. They move the rubbish around, but the
solid mountain of our true nature stays where it's always
been.
Rumi
Mevlana
- Love
has a hundred forms of pride and disdain, and is gained by
a hundred means of persuasion. Since Love is loyal, it purchases
one who is loyal: it has no interest in a disloyal companion.
Rumi
Mevlana
