That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it.”

“أنتِ جميلة كوطن محرر
وأنا متعب كوطن محتل
أنتِ حزينة كمخذول يقاوم
وأنا مستنهض كحرب وشيكة
أنتِ مشتهاة كتوقف الغارة
وأنا مخلوع القلب كالباحث بين الأنقاض
أنتِ جسورة كطيار يتدرب
وأنا فخور كجدته
أنتِ ملهوفة كوالد المريض
وأنا هادىء كممرضة
أنتِ حنونة كالرذاذ
وأنا أحتاجك لأنمو
كلانا جامح كالانتقام
كلانا وديع كالعفو
أنت قوية كأعمدة المحكمة
وأنا دهش كمغبون
وكلما التقينا
تحدثنا بلا توقف، كمحامييْن
عن العالم”
― مريد البرغوثي, طال الشتات

He had not missed a single one of her gestures, not one of the indications of her character, but he did not dare approach her for fear of destroying the spell.”
― Gabriel García Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera
