We don't know why this life happens, this is too mysterious. But on the obvious level, I know my life must be a happy life. If there is no more happiness, then I might lose my hope; then automatically, my life is shortened. In the worst case, I commit suicide. So therefore, life is based on hope. Hope means something good. For these reasons, we can see the purpose of our life is happiness.

True understanding and intelligence depend upon an individual's ability to turn an idea around in the brain and verbalize (or write) it clearly.... The human mind is a synthetic instrument.

All the [Islamic fundamentalist] rejection of the West is contained within the assumption that there will always exist out there a living, creative civilization, oddly neutral, open to all to appeal to. Rejection, therefore, is not absolute rejection. It is also, for the community as a whole, a way of ceasing to strive intellectually. It is to be parasitic; parasitism is one of the unacknowledged fruits of fundamentalism.
