I have a habit of comparing the phraseology of communiqus, one with another across the years, and noting a certain similarity of words, a certain similarity of optimism in the reports which followed the summit meetings and a certain similarity in the lack of practical results during the ensuing years.

The couple’s compatibility
Compatibility is not similarity of taste.
Similarity of taste is incompatibility.
A vine and a tree are a good blend.
Not two vines or two trees are so.

Parents and offspring’s access to paradise
God has similarity with parents
But He hardly has
Similarity with offspring
This is one of the reasons
Why parents are so prestigious
Against this backdrop
If the children are pious
But their parents are not
They will be able to take
Their parents to paradise
Whereas
If the parents are pious
But their children are not
They will be unable to take
Their children to paradise

God and Prophet Muhammad
Alas! There’s no one better than God
And He is cruel somewhat
God feels lonely
Although He has so many friends
Because
God is one of a kind
Even angels are not like God
Angels have wings
But God’s body has no wing
And they are like a dot to God
God is unable to create His own spouse!
That’s why it’s so hard to turn His mood on
And make Him satisfied.
Although God’s got all the powers
That exist in reality
He hasn’t got all the powers
That can be found in imagination.
God is neither a male nor a female -
God’s got more similarity
With mothers than others!
God’s got more similarity
With girls than boys!
Notwithstanding
Prophet Muhammad is the best creation
Since God's body is more like a male
And the universe is like His Holy Sperm
And
The Lord of the worlds
Is romantic, affectionate and loving.

There is no similarity between golf and putting; they are two different games, one played in the air, and the other on the ground.
The Integrity to be Friends
put two stones
as close to each other
as you can.
put two men too,
close to each other.
what's the similarity?
if both do not have
the integrity to
really understand
each other for the
common good,
two million years
from now they
would still be as good
as - mere stones.

Incompatibility. In matrimony a similarity of tastes, particularly the taste for domination.

It is funny because the guy who is my boss now, Howard Stern, has a similarity there. He got big being a regular guy. He wasn't the greatest looking guy in the world.

Desires to fire
Dissimilarity be with similarity,
Distance be with nearness and
Strangeness be with familiarity
For love to fire in each pair.

The scientists at the end of the 19th century had people coming to them with this weird behaviour, and they didn't know what was going on but there seemed to be a similarity. They needed an answer, so they made up one.

Many a person has held close, throughout their entire lives, two friends that always remained strange to one another, because one of them attracted by virtue of similarity, the other by difference.

The truth is, I'd never seen a Cary Grant film. Since then I have watched his stuff and it's astounding, but I don't see any similarity between us. Except for the fact that I'm told he used to wear ladies' underwear, which is something I also do.
