QUOTES FROM DISCIPLES OF FORTUNE

Excerpt of Disciples of Fortune

A woman’s love is all a man should expect from his wife. That love could be translated into so many positive things, especially if it is reciprocated.”


...The world  gets blessed every now and then with unique souls  who though burdened by their invisible crosses, still have the extraordinary strength to forge ahead in life and give others a helping hand at the same time. Despite their tribulations, most people are likely to think that they are fine. Even when the weights of their crosses become unbearable, even when they proceed in a breathless manner, we still have a hard time understanding that they are drowning. In fact, we even condemn them for failing to sacrifice more. Our grandfather was one of those rare and unfortunate souls.”
                                                         From  Disciples of Fortune

… Political realism is the way forward for any system that is genuinely for humanity or for the interest and advancement of its people.

                                                         From  Disciples of Fortune
  
“Men have the bloods of their fathers and the passions of their mothers, in the same sense that women have the bloods of their mothers and the passions of their fathers. We often find ourselves trapped in life when we fail to balance the two. The most unusual of men are those who are haunted by the warped bloods of their fathers and the untamed passions of their mothers. They become either the legends of the legends mankind lives to remember or they end up as the fools of their time,”

“Stubbornness is the bearer of disaster…”

"...We find our greatest peace when we embrace something that gives meaning to our lives.

                                                               From  Disciples of Fortune

“Hope is soothing, but it can become deceptive if we cling to it as the last resort against reality,”
                                                            From  Disciples of Fortune

“Hope is soothing, but it can become deceptive if we cling to it as the last resort against reality.”
                                                             From  Disciples of Fortune

“Most of our brains are out, but it is good what they did for themselves by leaving this country. They are Cameroon’s reserve for development, for the day that this country shall be free. Your late father was an intelligent man. He was even more than that. He was a sage. He once said to me that the intelligent Bamilekés are those who have sought a better future for themselves and for their families in British Cameroons. He was right. They have not been brainwashed as much as their francophone brothers have. If he were alive today, I am sure he would have judged that the intelligent Cameroonians are those who have sought refuge out of Cameroon.”

The Cameroonian soul is genuine. It is noble, and it embodies humanism.

“The good shall prevail in the end, the truth shall be the rule and the Cameroonian soul shall be free,” Hans said in an emotion-choked voice, “However, we should never lose our heads; we should always be prepared to forgive all the repentant souls.”
