Our followers are like bees which live among birds. None of the birds recognize the bees because of their small size and weakness. They would not treat them this way if they realized that these very small bees can carry honey which is very valuable in their stomachs.

About This Quote

The Uyghurs are a people in the far western part of China who have lived in their homeland for thousands of years. They are one of the most ancient cultures in the world, dating back to at least 3000 BC. They are called the "Marco Polo of China" because they lived in their own little communities all around China, even during the time that Marco Polo was traveling through China. At that time, the Chinese did not know they existed. The Chinese thought they were some kind of fairy.
