    أحلام مستغانمي
    “كل تذكرة سفر هي ورقة يا نصيب, تشتريها ولا تدري ماذا باعك القدر, رقم الرحلة.. رقم البوابة.. رقم مقعدك.. تاريخ سفرك.. ما هي إلا أرقام تلعب فيها المصادفة بأقدارك, يمكن لرحلة لم تحسب لها حسابا أن تغير مجرى حياتك أو تودي بها, أن تفتح لك الأبواب أو توصدها, أن تعود منها غانما أو مفلسا, عاشقا أ مفارقا, أما هي فكانت تعود وهي كل هذا دفعة واحدة”
    ― أحلام مستغانمي, الأسود يليق بك
