Quotes 

• Sinan Karasu : Nobody's more dependable than a person who's alone with his conscience and free will. Because he builds this responsibility, he doesn't receive it. So he must undertake all the consequences of his acts.

  Imam Veysel : Who says free will is free? Even if it was, how could you trust it?

  Sinan Karasu : It's not for everyone. Isn't that why people without the courage choose servitude over existence?

  Imam Veysel : All rivers are born as furious waterfalls but grow calm on their way to the sea. But your raging rivers drag along lots of pebbles and sticks, too.

  Sinan Karasu : Just like strong characters drag underdogs and losers with them?

• Imam Veysel : What did Ibn Arabi say? The god you worship is under my feet.
