“Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure.”
― Stephen King, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

“There is no such thing as a "broken family." Family is family, and is not determined by marriage certificates, divorce papers, and adoption documents. Families are made in the heart. The only time family becomes null is when those ties in the heart are cut. If you cut those ties, those people are not your family. If you make those ties, those people are your family. And if you hate those ties, those people will still be your family because whatever you hate will always be with you.”
― C. JoyBell C.

“سأصيرُ يوماً ما أُريدُ

سأَصيرُ يوماً فكرةً. لا سَيْفَ يحملُها إلى الأرضِ اليبابِ، ولا كتابَ

كأنَّها مَطَرٌ على جَبَلٍ تَصَدَّعَ من تَفَتُّح عُشْبَةٍ، لا القُوَّةُ انتصرتْ ولا العَدْلُ الشريد.”
― محمود درويش
