    Fernando Pessoa
    “The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most, are those that are absurd - The longing for impossible things, precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was; the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else; dissatisfaction with the world’s existence. All these half-tones of the soul’s consciousness create in us a painful landscape, an eternal sunset of what we are.”

    D.H. Lawrence
    “But that is how men are! Ungrateful and never satisfied. When you don't have them they hate you because you won't; and when you do have them they hate you again, for some other reason. Or for no reason at all, except that they are discontented children, and can't be satisfied whatever they get, let a woman do what she may.”

    ميسون السويدان
    “قلْ لي.. لماذا اخترتَني؟
    وأخذتَني بيديكَ من بين الأنامْ
    ومشيتَ بي..
    ومشيتَ.. ثمّ تركتَني
    كالطفل يبكي في الزِّحامْ
    إن كنتَ - يا مِلحَ المدامعِ - بِعتَني
    فأقلّ ما يَرِثُ السكوتُ مِنَ الكلامْ
    هُوَ أن تؤشّرَ مِن بعيدٍ بالسلامْ
    أن تُغلقَ الأبوابَ إنْ
    قررتَ ترحل في الظلامْ
    ما ضرَّ لو ودَّعتَنِي؟
    ومنحتَني فصلَ الخِتامْ؟
    حتى أريحَ يديَّ من
    تقليبِ آخر صفحةٍ
    من قصّتي..
    تلك التي
    يشتدُّ أبْيَضُها فيُعميني
    إذا اشتدَّ الظلامْ
    حتى أنامْ
    حتى أنامْ”
