“وتشعبت طرق الكلام وطن فى الكون ابتهال :
'الله يمنحنا ولو طفلاً يعلمنا الضحك'
فتعود فى الضوء المضبَّبِ صورة الوجه الغريب
فكأن طفلاً بيننا
وكأن صوتاً فى دمى يبكى لأن الطفل مزموم الشفاة
وكأن صوتَ الكونَ يغسل جرْسه قبل الصلاة
ويقول مسحوراً لنا :
" الله يضحك حين يبتسم الصغار”
― محمد عفيفي مطر

“Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it's yours.”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

“I have come to accept the feeling of not knowing where I am going. And I have trained myself to love it. Because it is only when we are suspended in mid-air with no landing in sight, that we force our wings to unravel and alas begin our flight. And as we fly, we still may not know where we are going to. But the miracle is in the unfolding of the wings. You may not know where you're going, but you know that so long as you spread your wings, the winds will carry you.”
― C. JoyBell C.

“I let my head fall back, and I gazed into the Eternal Blue Sky. It was morning. Some of the sky was yellow, some the softest blue. One small cloud scuttled along. Strange how everything below can be such death and chaos and pain while above the sky is peace, sweet blue gentleness. I heard a shaman say once, the Ancestors want our souls to be like the blue sky.”

It's all crap.

None. Nowhere to be found.

Why doesn't anybody realize this?”

“The Cat and the Moon

The cat went here and there
And the moon spun round like a top,
And the nearest kin of the moon,
The creeping cat, looked up.
Black Minnaloushe stared at the moon,
For, wander and wail as he would,
The pure cold light in the sky
Troubled his animal blood.
Minnaloushe runs in the grass
Lifting his delicate feet.
Do you dance, Minnaloushe, do you dance?
When two close kindred meet,
What better than call a dance?
Maybe the moon may learn,
Tired of that courtly fashion,
A new dance turn.
Minnaloushe creeps through the grass
From moonlit place to place,
The sacred moon overhead
Has taken a new phase.
Does Minnaloushe know that his pupils
Will pass from change to change,
And that from round to crescent,
From crescent to round they range?
Minnaloushe creeps through the grass
Alone, important and wise,
And lifts to the changing moon
His changing eyes.”
― William Butler Yeats

“الحب هو ذكاء المسافة . الا تقترب كثيرا فتلغي اللهفة ، ولا تبتعد طويلا فتنسى . الا تضع حطبك دفعة واحدة في موقد من تحب . ان تبقيه مشتعلا بتحريك الحطب ليس اكثر , دون ان يلمح الاخر يدك المحركة لمشاعره ومسار قدره .”
