“A First Sign of the Beginning of Understanding is the Wish to Die.”
― Franz Kafka

“Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good.”
― Marcus Aurelius

“Marry, and you will regret it; don’t marry, you will also regret it; marry or don’t marry, you will regret it either way. Laugh at the world’s foolishness, you will regret it; weep over it, you will regret that too; laugh at the world’s foolishness or weep over it, you will regret both. Believe a woman, you will regret it; believe her not, you will also regret it… Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will regret that too; hang yourself or don’t hang yourself, you’ll regret it either way; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both. This, gentlemen, is the essence of all philosophy.”
― Søren Kierkegaard

“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.”
― Anais Nin

“إنهم يريدون أن يفتحوا العالم وهم عاجزون عن فتح كتاب
ويريدون أن يخوضوا البحر وهم يتزحلقون بقطرة ماء
ويبشرون بثورة ثقافية تحرق الأخضر واليابس ، وثقافتهم لاتتجاوز باب المقهى الذي يجلسون فيه ، وعناوين الكتب المترجمة التي سمعوا عنها”
― نزار قباني, الكتابة عمل انقلابي
