Forsaken Quotes
Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor has He become displeased, / And surely what comes after is better for you than that which has gone before.
- Quran
Will a man leave the snow of Lebanon which cometh from the rock of the field? or shall the cold flowing waters that come from another place be forsaken? / Because my people hath forgotten me, they have burned incense to vanity, and they have caused them to stumble in their ways from the ancient paths, to walk in paths, in a way not cast up; / To make their land desolate, and a perpetual hissing; every one that passeth thereby shall be astonished, and wag his head.
- Bible
Who is the wise man, that may understand this? and who is he to whom the mouth of the LORD hath spoken, that he may declare it, for what the land perisheth and is burned up like a wilderness, that none passeth through? / And the LORD saith, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein; / But have walked after the imagination of their own heart, and after Baalim, which their fathers taught them: / Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.
- Bible
While it is correct that sovereign countries do in principle have the right to pursue civilian nuclear energy programs for peaceful purposes, those rights are guaranteed to states who also sign on to international conventions and protocols. North Korea has proven on its own that it violates rules and principles, and therefore has forsaken those so-called rights through its own actions.
