"Then why don't you act like it?"
"I do. I just do it in private."
"Because you don't trust me?"
"No," she said, "because I know you're frightened, too.”
― Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember

“Jamie: Please don't pretend like you know me, ok?
Landon: But I do, I do. We've had all the same classes in the same school since kindergarten. Why you're Jamie Sullivan. You sit at lunch table 7. Which isn't exactly the reject table, but is definitely in self exile territory. You have exactly one sweater. You like to look at your feet when you walk. Oh, oh, and yeah, for fun, you like to tutor on weekends and hang out with the cool kids from "Stars and Planets." Now how does that sound?
Jamie: Thoroughly predictable, nothing I haven't heard before.
Landon: You don't care what people think about you?
Jamie: No.”

I am not commanding you, but I want to treat the sincerity of your love by comparing it to the earnestness of others.

God had finally answered me, and I suddenly knew what I had to do.”

“This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soulmate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”
― Marilyn Monroe

“I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough..”
― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.”

“Love is like the wind, you can't see it but you can feel it.”
― Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember

“إن الملايين ممن ينوون الهجرة يكونون قد هاجروا نفسيا لحظة تقديم الطلب و هجروا الوطن على المستوى الشعورى.و يظل حالهم على هذا,حتى لو ظلوا سنوات ينتظرون الإشارة بالرحيل.فتكون النتيجة الفعلية أننا نعيش فى بلد فيه الملايين من المهاحرين بالنية أو الذين رحلوا من هنا بأرواحهم, و لا تزال أبدانهم تتحرك وسط الجموع كأنها أبدان الموتى الذين فقدوا أرواحهم ,ولم يبق لديهم إلا الحلم الباهت بالرحيل النهائى.”
― يوسف زيدان, كلمات: التقاط الألماس من كلام الناس

“قال تعالى ((يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَن يَرْتَدَّ مِنكُمْ عَن دِينِهِ فَسَوْفَ يَأْتِي اللَّهُ بِقَوْمٍ يُحِبُّهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَهُ
إن الله لا يخوف الذين يرتدون عن دينهم ،بأن يلقيهم فى النار ،او يصب عليهم النحاس المصهور ،وانما يخوفهم بالحب ،بأن يستبدل بهم قوما يحبهم ويحبونه ..ان الارتداد عن الدين هو الشرك ..وليس فى الوجود اقسى من فساد العقل ،والله يحارب الشرك بالحب ..بأرق ما فى الوجود وهو الحب.
لم يقل لهم انه سيستبدل بهم قوما مؤمنين ..او صالحين ..او اتقياء..ثمه مسافه بعد هذا كله ..هى مسافه المحبين”
― أحمد بهجت

“رب انسان تنزل به تصرفاته إلي مستوي أقل من مستوي الحجارة ..
ورب حيوان صغير يرفعه تواضعه الي النجوم
والله تبارك وتعالي يوحي الي النحل ويسخر هدهداً ضعيفاً لكشف قضية خطيرة من قضايا الإلحاد وعبادة الشمس
ويوقف خيط العنكبوت في الصراع أمام حديد السيوف

لا تحتقر أحداً لأن الله اختار أن يخلقه حيواناً
تعلم أن تتعلم من خلق الله
إن الصورة ليست إلا ظلا
ولا يعلم حقيقة الكنه والمعني سوي الله .”
― أحمد بهجت, حوار بين طفل ساذج وقط مثقف

“ابليس: هذا أفكر فيه طيلة الوقت .. كان الله يعلم أنني سأرفض السجود.. سأتحول إلى الشر المحض.. لو علمت أنا أن الله يعلم بما سيكون فربما كان لي تصرف آخر.. المأساة أن الله يعلم ما بنفسي وأنا لا أعرف ما في نفسه.
قلت: أكنت تحلم بأن تخدع الخالق.
ابليس: لقد تصورت أنني خدعته بعبادتي آلاف السنين حتى وصلت إلي مرتبة الوقوف مع الملائكة .. كنت واهماً.. كان يعرف أن في نفسي خيطا من الرياء وأنا أعبده.. كان يعرف أنني أعبده لأترقى.. لم أكن أعبده لذاته.. إنما عبدته بسبب ما تمنحه العبادة من كبرياء ومجد.. كان هذا شيئاً لا تعرفه زوجتي ولا يعرفه أصدق أصدقائي.. كيف عرفه الخالق..”
― أحمد بهجت, مذكرات صائم
