Quotes 

• Ahmed Hassan - Revolutionary : We're not looking for a leader as much as we're looking for a conscience. What is a leader anyway? Are they going to offer solutions from the heavens? They won't do that. The thing is, if we are able to create this conscience within the society, we'll be able to find a good president. We are not looking for a leader to rule us.

• Ahmed Hassan - Revolutionary : The leaders play on top. The people pay the price for everything. The people always pay the price.

• Ahmed Hassan - Revolutionary : If you ask me "What is the revolution's biggest victory?" It's that kids today play a game called 'Protest'.

• Ahmed Hassan - Revolutionary : The Brotherhood wanted Parliament, and they took it. They wanted the upper house, and they took it. Now, they took the presidency. What else is left?

  Revolutionary : Nothing.

  Ahmed Hassan - Revolutionary : Then this is the end of the Brotherhood.

  Revolutionary : How so? That's ridiculous. They're controlling everthing now. How can you say we will topple the Brotherhood?

  Ahmed Hassan - Revolutionary : The more they control, the more people will hate them.
