I Forgive Everyone – Garegin Nzhdeh – Quotes

“I forgive everyone, forgive for two reasons – firstly, my national religion does not allow me to be hostile to any Armenian, and secondly, I deeply understand these unfortunates who have not yet overcome the slave inside them and therefore remain powerless and evil!”

“My soul and thoughts rebel against this cannibalistic world, the world that has persecuted, tormented, and quartered thousands of preachers of the lofty ideals of love, justice, and independence.”

“Why does the human race suffer? Because a naive person has sought and will seek happiness beyond his own limits and beyond the limits of his soul. Because a materialized person did not recognize true happiness and turned his life into hell.”

“The human is not the pitiful weak creature that the short-sighted theory of material worship is trying to present to us. He is almost omnipotent when he realizes that there is an ocean of hidden power in him that can be freely used by a self-recognized person.”

“How similar is the Armenian warrior to his ‘wise and brave Gods’!”

“Creatively, do not become like others. Similarity kills the individuality. Love the sublime, beautiful, and heroic even in your enemies. Do not envy because the world has nothing that your soul would not have. Anger is a weakness. Arrogance is not an advantage but a weakness. Do not look down on people – this does not add credibility to you. The weak seek to please the crowd and get the attention of the street. First of all, be a knight towards your personality.”

“My God, how great is the constellation of brave men on the horizon of our history! And how dazzling their radiance is! Everyone is crowned, everyone has scars of glory. Their pupils show lightning, anger, and bitterness. There is almost no race in the world that wouldn’t recognize the strength of our hand.”
