    Mitch Albom
    “I used to think I knew everything. I was a "smart person" who "got things done," and because of that, the higher I climbed, the more I could look down and scoff at what seemed silly or simple, even religion.
    But I realized something as I drove home that night: that I am neither better nor smarter, only luckier. And I should be ashamed of thinking I knew everything, because you can know the whole world and still feel lost in it. So many people are in pain-no matter how smart or accomplished-they cry, they yearn, they hurt.But instead of looking down on things, they look up, which is where I should have been looking, too. Because when the world quiets to the sound of your own breathing, we all want the same things:comfort, love, and a peaceful heart.”
    Mitch Albom, Have a Little Faith: a True Story

    “كم من امرأة تحسب آية في جمالها وفي تناسبها وملاحتها ومع ذلك غير جميلة .. اذا سر امروء بمشاهدتها مرة او مرات فهو لا يتمنى مجالستها ويمل كلامها وسخافتها بعد ان يعرفها قليلا .. اذ يرى ان احسن ما فيها هو هذا الشيء الخارجي الذي لا يكفي لامتلاك القلوب واكتساب الارواح”

    Samih Al-Qasim
    “أحكي للعالم أحكي له
    عن بيتٍ كَسروا قِنديله
    عن فأسٍ قتلت زنبقةً
    وحريقٍ أودى بجديلة..

    أحكي عن شاةٍ لم تُحلب
    عن عَجنةِ أُمّ ما خُبزت
    عن سقفٍ طينيّ أعشب
    أحكي للعالم أحكي له..

    يا بنتَ الجارِ المنسيّة
    الدُّمية عندي محميّة
    الدُّمية عندي فَتعالي
    في باصِ الرّيح الشرقيّة..

    حنّا لا أذكرُ قَسماتك
    لكني أشقى كي أذكر
    في قلبي خَفقةُ خطواتك
    عصفورٌ يَدرج أو يكبر..

    أحكي للعالم أحكي له
    عن بيتٍ كَسروا قِنديله
    عن فأسٍ قتلت زنبقةً
    وحريقٍ أودى بجديلة..

    كُنّا ما أجملَ ما كُنّا
    يا بنتَ الجارِ ويا حنّا
    كنّا فلماذا أعيننا
    صارت بالغربة مجبولة
    ولماذا صارت أيدينا
    بحبالِ اللعنة مجدولة..”
    سميح القاسم

    Betty  Smith
    “From that time on, the world was hers for the reading. She would never be lonely again, never miss the lack of intimate friends. Books became her friends and there was one for every mood. There was poetry for quiet companionship. There was adventure when she tired of quiet hours. There would be love stories when she came into adolescence and when she wanted to feel a closeness to someone she could read a biography. On that day when she first knew she could read, she made a vow to read one book a day as long as she lived.”
    Betty Smith, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

    كيف يستطيع الإنسان أن يقول الشيء العميق ببساطة”
    غسان كنفاني

    Cornelia Funke
    “The world was a terrible place, cruel, pitiless, dark as a bad dream. Not a good place to live. Only in books could you find pity, comfort, happiness - and love. Books loved anyone who opened them, they gave you security and friendship and didn't ask anything in return; they never went away, never, not even when you treated them badly.”
    Cornelia Funke, Inkheart / Inkspell / Inkdeath
