"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. "

Lebanon names Tamam Salam as new prime minister- BBC News

A prominent Sunni politician, Tamam Salam, has been nominated to become Lebanon's next prime minister, ending a dangerous two-week power vacuum.
His nomination was announced by the president's office after he was backed by parties across the political spectrum, including Hezbollah.
The last government resigned amid tensions over upcoming elections.
Political tensions have been exacerbated by the continuing conflict in neighbouring Syria.
Syria has historically held great political influence in Lebanon, its much smaller neighbour.
Many Sunni Muslims sympathise with the Syrian rebels, while the militant Shia movement Hezbollah and its supporters back President Bashar al-Assad.
