"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Salam slams hostage crisis coverage as ‘shameful’- The Daily Star

BEIRUT: Prime Minister Tammam Salam launched a scathing attack at politicians and the media for “shamefully” politicizing the Arsal hostage crisis, warning that their irresponsible words and actions could further endanger the soldiers and policemen.
“There have been statements by some politicians and others that only result in tensions and do not help us in confronting the dangerous, imminent security threat that is facing the entire region ... and Lebanon,” Salam, surrounded by reporters, said Wednesday after meeting Speaker Nabih Berri to discuss the issue.
“These kidnapped soldiers are our sons ... because they headed to Arsal, placing their lives at risk, to confront this terror that has no religion, not for a certain group, sect or religion.”
