“In the past two decades, what is abnormal in the discourse among nations has been accepted as normal in US-Iran relations. Lack of diplomatic relations, often between countries at conflict, even at war, is the abnormality, not the norm.”
Cyrus Vance
“Therefore leave them alone to go on with the false discourses and to sport until they come face to face with that day of theirs with which they are threatened; / The day on which they shall come forth from their graves in haste, as if they were hastening on to a goal, / Their eyes cast down; disgrace shall overtake them; that is the day which they were threatened with.”
quran
“All these woes shall serveFor sweet discourses in our time to come.”
