Lamar > Lamar's Quotes

“الحاضر بالنسبة إليّ يعني الأبد، والأبد يجري ويذوي بلا انقطاع. كل لحظة هي حياة، وكل لحظة تمضي هي موت. أشعر بأنّي مسحوقة تحت ثقل الأزمنة، فأنا الحاضر، وأعرف أني زائلة بدوري. هكذا يرحل الإنسان. أما الكتابة، اللحظة الأسمى، فتبقى وتمضي وحيدة على دروب هذا العالم”
― سيلفيا بلاث

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”
― Marilyn Monroe

“…What is my life for and what am I going to do with it? I don't know and I’m afraid. I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And what do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones, and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited. Yet I am not a cretin: lame, blind, and stupid.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

“نلتقي بعد قليلْ

― محمود درويش, ديوان محمود درويش - المجلد الأول

“I am afraid of getting older. I am afraid of getting married. Spare me from cooking three meals a day—spare me from the relentless cage of routine and rote. I want to be free. (...) I want, I think, to be omniscient… I think I would like to call myself "The girl who wanted to be God." Yet if I were not in this body, where would I be—perhaps I am destined to be classified and qualified. But, oh, I cry out against it. I am I—I am powerful—but to what extent? I am I.”
― Sylvia Plath, Letters Home
