«إن المفتاح السحري في كتابة الرحلات لا يكمن في إجادة وصف الديار والأنهار والجبال والوديان والسهول، ولا في الحديث عن اختلاف العادات والتقاليد بين المجتمعات المختلفة، بل يكمن في الطقس اللغوي المتميز الذي لا يخلو من عفوية، في كل ما كتبە جمال الغيطاني عن رحلاتە العربية والشرقية والغربية، كما يتمثل في هذ

God Money, God Power, Where is God Love? is not about religion, and it is not about politics. It is a message I wanted to share with the world that money is not as important if our hearts are filled with so much love. Love leads us to understanding and shows gratitude toward others. I express my deepest love for humanity, and my heart is open for all the children in this world, believing that these young children are the ones who open the doors to a better future. This cannot be done by one person alone. It starts in the home with proper guidance and values as the foundation.
