    نزار قباني
    “متهمون نحن بالإرهاب
    أذا كتبنا عن بقايا وطن ...
    مخلع ... مفكك مهترئ
    أشلاؤه تناثرت أشلاء ...
    عن وطن يبحث عن عنوانه ...
    وأمة ليس لها سماء !!
    ***
    عن وطن ... يمنعنا ان نشتري
    الجريدة
    أو نسمع الأنباء ...
    عن وطن ... كل العصافير به
    ممنوعة دوما من الغناء ...
    عن وطن ...
    كتابه تعودوا أن يكتبوا
    من شدة الرعب ...
    على الهواء !!”
    نزار قباني

    Frederick Douglass
    “Freedom now appeared, to disappear no more forever. It was heard in every sound and seen in every thing. It was very present to torment me with a sense of my wretched condition. I saw nothing without seeing it, I heard nothing without hearing it, and felt nothing without feeling it. It looked from every star, it smiled in every calm, breathed in every wind, and moved in every storm.”
    Frederick Douglass, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass
