“الغياب شكل من أشكال الحضور، يغيب البعض وهم حاضرون في أذهاننا أكثر من وقت حضورهم في حياتنا”
― سعود السنعوسي, ساق البامبو

“!ولكن، حتى الجذور لا تعني شيئاً أحياناً
لو كنت مثل شجرة البامبو.. لا انتماء لها.. نقتطع جزءاً من ساقها.. نغرسه، بلا جذور، في أي أرض.. لا يلبث الساق طويلاً حتى تنبت له جذور جديدة.. تنمو من جديد.. في أرض جديدة.. بلا ماضٍ.. بلا ذاكرة.. لا يلتفت إلى اختلاف الناس حول تسميته.. كاوايان في الفلبين.. خيزران في الكويت.. أو بامبو في أماكن أخرى.”
― سعود السنعوسي, ساق البامبو

“People have forgotten this truth," the fox said. "But you mustn’t forget it. You become responsible forever for what you’ve tamed. You’re responsible for your rose.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“You're beautiful, but you're empty...One couldn't die for you. Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she's the one I've watered. Since she's the one I put under glass, since she's the one I sheltered behind the screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three butterflies). Since she's the one I listened to when she complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing at all. Since she's my rose.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“And when your sorrow is comforted (time soothes all sorrows) you will be content that you have known me. You will always be my friend. You will want to laugh with me. And you will sometimes open your window, so, for that pleasure . . . And your friends will be properly astonished to see you laughing as you look up at the sky! Then you will say to them, 'Yes, the stars always make me laugh!' And they will think you are crazy. It will be a very shabby trick that I shall have played on you...”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“Of course, I love you,' the flower said to him. 'If you were not aware of it, it was my fault.”
