Notable quotes

“[Türkiye] does not seem to have a system for supporting refugees, not even by placing them in temporary camps as other countries do. This puts the [Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light] group’s members in the impossible situation of either ending up homeless on the streets [and isolated from each other], or risk becoming illegal and being deported back to their countries of origin.”
— Massimo Introvigne and Rosita Šorytė, "Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light: A New Humanitarian Crisis in Türkiye", Bitter Winter (July 17, 2024)
“I hate calumny so much that I do not want even to impute foolishness to the Turks, although I detest them as tyrants over women and enemies of the arts.”
— Voltaire, The Philosophical Dictionary selected and translated by H.I. Woolf (1924)
“[Turks] one and all, bag and baggage, shall I hope clear out from the province they have desolated and profaned.”
— William Gladstone, speech (May 7, 1877).
“[The Ottoman Empire] whose sick body was not supported by a mild and regular diet, but by a powerful treatment, which continually exhausted it.”
— Montesquieu, Persian Letters, I, 19.
“[The Ottoman Empire] has the body of a sick old man, who tried to appear healthy, although his end was near.”
— Sir Thomas Roe, Ambassador to Constantinople. See Buchanan, Letter, 375.
“Your Majesty may think me an impatient sick man, and that the Turks are even sicker.”
— Voltaire to Catherine II. In the Rundschau (April, 1878).
