The Structure of the World Explained
Abu:
Does the world have a roof?
Genie:
Of course! Supported by seven pillars, and the seven pillars are set on the shoulders of a genie whose strength is beyond thought, and the genie stands on an eagle, and the eagle on a bull, and the bull on a fish, and the fish swims in the sea of eternity.

A Moment of Freedom and Threat
Genie: [upon being freed]
Free; after two thousand years. Two thousand years ago, King Solomon, Master of all the Dijinn, imprisoned me in that bottle. Ah-hahahahaha! For me, this is the first moment of my new freedom; but for you, hahahaha, for you, this is the last moment of your life.
Abu:
My life?
Genie:
Your life! In a moment, I shall lift my foot and crush you; insect, weevil, worm that you are!
Abu:
But, genie, you can't do this! I fished you out of the sea, I opened your bottle, I let you out. You can't be so ungrateful!
Genie:
Ungrateful? Slaves are not grateful, not for their freedom! Listen, inside that bottle for the first thousand years, I swore I'd enrich the one who freed me with all the riches of the Earth; but in the second thousand years, my imprisoned spirit turned to vengenance on all who lived and were free, and I swore I'd kill the one who freed me, to satisfy that hate!
Abu:
Wait, wait! Before I die, can I- can I ask one question?
Genie:
Ask!
Abu:
How is it that you, big as a mountain, could ever get in that bottle, that I hold in my hand? You weren't ever in it really, were you?
Genie:
Of course I was!
Abu:
You weren't!
Genie:
I was!
Abu:
You were?
Genie:
What? You dare doubt?!
Abu:
If I'm going to die in a moment, I can dare anything; and I say it's impossible!
Genie:
Impossible, you say?
Abu:
I'll never believe it! Nothing can make me.
Genie:
Nothing?
Abu:
Nothing; unless I see it with my own eyes.
Genie: [chuckles as he turns to mist and reenters the lamp. Abu quickly runs to reseal it]
Then dog of an unbeliever, before you die, you shall see with me, nothing is impossible! You shall see, and believe!
Abu:
Now, you great overblown belch!
Genie: [from inside the lamp]
Let me out; let me out!
Abu:
Just because you were big, you thought you could bully.

Secrets and Tyranny in Ancient Bagdad
Story-teller:
It is told, though Allah is wiser or more merciful, there was in the past of the ages, a king among kings, a master of arms and of armies, of vassals and auxiliaries. And this master of time and people was an oppressor to both, and the earth was as pitch in the faces of his subjects and his slaves, and they groaned together in secret.
Ahmad:
Is it the king he's talking about?
Listener:
Don't ask questions. There are spies everywhere. You must be careful in Bagdad.
Another listener:
What is the name of the tyrant?
Various others in the audience:
Ahmad. Ahmad. Ahmad.

The Nature of Man's Power and Betrayal
Jafar: [to Ahmad]
Men are evil, hatred in their eyes, lies on their lips, betrayal in their hearts. You will learn one day, great king, that there are three things that men respect; the lash that descends, the yoke that breaks and the sword that slays. By the power and terror of these you may conquer the Earth.

The Fragility of Mortal Nature
Genie:
Mortals are weak and frail. If their stomach speaks, they forget their brains. If their brain speaks, they forget their hearts. And if their hearts speak, hahahahaha, if their hearts speak, they forget everything!
