Abd-ar-Rahman III Quotes

I Have Now Reigned Above Fifty Years In Victory And Peace, Beloved By My Subjects, Dreaded By My Enemies, And Respected By My Allies. Riches And Honors, Power And Pleasure, Have Waited On My Call, Nor Does Any Earthly Blessing Appear To Be Wanting For My Felicity. In This Situation, I Have Diligently Numbered The Days Of Pure And Genuine Happiness Which Have Fallen To My Lot: They Amount To Fourteen. O Man, Place Not Thy Confidence In This Present World!
