"These Bedouin tribes led predatory lives and on their minds there was nothing but greed, profit worship, and what satisfied their most primitive desires―never wandering beyond the material and the tangible. The moral principle that they boasted of was manliness, while even that meant nothing but vanity and revenge seeking. The bravery and freedom loving that has been attributed to the Arabs manifested itself in looting and seeking vengeance; their life’s sole interests were lust, wine, and fighting."
