"Given that the 25 January Revolution was known worldwide as a civilised, peaceful revolution, it should continue its civilised manner that conforms to the democracy we are seeking. Thus there is no alternative to issuing a law on political corruption." -- Al-Ahram
"Egyptians revolted against the Mamluks, the French and British occupation and King Farouk and expelled them all. They rebelled against [Hosni] Mubarak, Safwat [El-Sherif], [Ahmed] Ezz and other NDP leaders. Nevertheless, they are still present and ruling either from Tora Prison or from inside state institutions." -- Khaled Gabr , Al-Akhbar
"It will go down in history that the ruling military council was the sponsor of a religious state in Egypt." -- Mamoun Fendi, Al-Masry Al-Youm
"I no longer know whether President Al-Assad is aware of the magnitude of his losses in only eight months, whether he can perform a miracle to save his people and his regime, or if Syria will take the road of blood and tears towards the unknown." -- Jihad Al-Khazen , Al-Hayat
"The Syrian regime has turned into a frantic monster that behaves without logic, awareness or perception, and has lost all the requirements of human sense." -- Hussein Shobokshi , Asharq Al-Awsat
"Syrian opposition factions and groups are mistaken if they are relying on the Arab League and its foreign ministers to help them in their effort to topple the Syrian regime and replace it with a modern, democratic state." -- Abdel-Bari Atwan , Al-Quds Al-Arabi
