    أحمد خالد توفيق
    “إذا كان ينبغي أن أكتب كي يكون البطل قدوة ، فقد قام بها د. نبيل فاروق مع أدهم صبري من قبلي .. وهذا ما لا أريده .. أريد شخصاً لحمه من لحمنا ورائحته من رائحتنا ويعرق وهكذا .. أتفهمني ؟.. انظر مثلاً ستجد أن فيه أخطاء قاتلة ؛ لا أستطيع أن أخبرك أني سأحذف من شخصيته الملل .. لكن أستطيع ان أخبرك أني سأحذف موضوع السجائر .. لأنه خطأ ، لأني وجدت ناساً بعد ذلك تدخن ويقولون أنهم يفعلون ذلك لأنهم يحبون رفعت إسماعيل .. لا طبعاً هذا خطأ .. أنا لم أدّعِ أنني مصلح اجتماعي ، ولكنني لست مفسد اجتماعي”
