    “قال لي مرة فيما هو يقلب جريدة في يده : "اسمع يا فيلسوفي الصغير , الإنسان يعيش ستين سنة في الغالب ، أليس كذلك ؟ يقضي نصفها في النوم . بقي ثلاثون سنة . اطرح عشر سنوات ما بين مرض وسفر وأكل وفراغ . بقي عشرون ؛ إن نصف هذه العشرين قد مضت مع طفولة حمقاء , ومدارس ابتدائية . لقد بقيت عشر سنوات . عشر سنوات فقط ، أليست جديرة بأن يعيشها الإنسان بطمأنينة ؟"


    بهذه الفلسفة كان يقابل أي تحد يواجهه . كان يحل مشاكله بالتسامح وحين يعجز التسامح يحلها بالنكتة وحين تعجز النكتة يفلسفها .”

    Albert Einstein
    “A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
    Albert Einstein

    Markus Zusak
    “A human doesn't have a heart like mine. The human heart is a line, whereas my own is a circle, and I have the endless ability to be in the right place at the right time. The consequence of this is that I'm always finding humans at their best and worst. I see their ugly and their beauty, and I wonder how the same thing can be both. Still, they have one thing I envy. Humans, if nothing else, have the good sense to die.”
    Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

    “She said it out loud, the words distributed into a room that was full of cold air and books. Books everywhere! Each wall was armed with overcrowded yet immaculate shelving. It was barely possible to see paintwork. There were all different styles and sizes of lettering on the spines of the black, the red, the gray, the every-colored books. It was one of the most beautiful things Liesel Meminger had ever seen.

    With wonder, she smiled.

    That such a room existed!”
    Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

    Neil Gaiman
    “She seems so cool, so focused, so quiet, yet her eyes remain fixed upon the horizon. You think you know all there is to know about her immediately upon meeting her, but everything you think you know is wrong. Passion flows through her like a river of blood.

    She only looked away for a moment, and the mask slipped, and you fell. All your tomorrows start here.”
    Neil Gaiman, Fragile Things: Short Fictions and Wonders
