America was born modern; it did not have to achieve modernity, nor did it have modernity thrust upon it.
Ernest Gellner

Irving Kristol
Modernity has replaced ethics with legalese.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
To wage war within oneself is Islam; the real fight is an inner one. To dispel evil qualities, evil thoughts, and the differences that lead to separations is Islam. To wage war upon jealousy, envy, and vengeance is Islam. To cut out and discard the qualities of Satan and to fill ourselves with the qualities of Allah is Islam. To show a heart full of love to our brothers and sisters is the wealth of Islam.
Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
The challenge of modernity is to live without illusions and without becoming disillusioned.
