    مصطفى ذكري
    “تخضع حياتي اليومية لتكرارات عقلية وجسدية،
    تدور التكرارات في حيز مكاني ضيق،
    وهي تحدث دائماً بصيغة الجمع،
    أي أنني لا أذكر للتكرار مرةً أولى أو ثانية،
    ولا أذكر أيضاً كيف تراكم فوق الكتفين،
    ... يبدو أن التكرار في مرته الأولى أو الثانية أو حتى الثالثة،
    كان اختلافاً، كان يلمع ببريق البداية، ويحدث تحت مبدأ الندرة”
    ― مصطفى ذكرى
