Sufis were always spreading love with their music, and if some kind of extremism is a threat to it, it is a threat to all humanity.

Adnan Sami

Most governments are pragmatic, most people are logical. There are pockets of extremism in Israel, in the U.S. and in the Muslim world. But we have to fight them with reason, with logic and with compassion.

Al-Waleed bin Talal

Hatred, racism, and extremism have no place in this country.

Angela Merkel

If left-wing extremism continues to flourish in parts which have natural resources of minerals, the climate for investment would certainly be affected.

The so-called cancel culture on the Internet, the extremism that sometimes flares up on university campuses and newsrooms, and the exaggerated claims of those who practice identity politics are a political and cultural problem that will require real bravery to fight.

Anne Applebaum

Beji Caid Essebsi

Bennie Thompson

Ultimately, the forces of dictatorship and extremism robbed me of my mother, but she lives on as a symbol of hope, a role model for women across the world. She proved beyond a doubt, with her life and relentless courage, that women can certainly do everything.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari

Especially today as we fight the war on terror - against an enemy that represents hatred, extremism and stands behind no flag - we need to remember the sacrifices that have gone into protecting our flag.
