Destroy this temple;
I will raise it again in three days.
Have you spoken about how beautiful the temple is?
The time will come when not one stone will be left on another;
every one of them will be thrown down. (1)
Destroy This Temple!

And though we turn on electric lights,
we cannot avoid the coming of the night of life.

Am I Crazy?
Because I am different from you,
Because my thought is different from yours,
Because my language is different from yours,
Because you are uncomfortable with me,
Do you call me crazy?
