“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
― Steve Jobs

“أنت في الحياة تسمو بقدر ما تعطي، لا بقدر ما تأخذ.
وقليلون في الناس من يعطون، وأقل منهم أولئك الذين يعرفون كيف يعطون،
هؤلاء نخبة النّخبة، وهنالك الذين يعطون كأنّهم يشترون،
أولئك الذين يعرضون عليك المحبّة وهم ينتظرون منك مقابل ذلك عملاً،
لا يعدّ عطاؤهم شيئاً بالنسبة إليك.. هؤلاء ليسوا من المعطين بل من التّجار.
ومع ما في العطاء المجرّد من سموّ فهنالك عطاء أسمى وأرفع،
هو عطاء الإنسان جزءاً من نفسه، أو فلذة من كبده،
يجود بها على الناس، ليغذوا عقولهم، ويرووا أرواحهم..
فهذه الأجزاء التي تستغني عنها لتكمل النقص في غيرك،
هذه القطع من قلبك، تنعم بها على الناس لابسة لباس المادة،
من لغة أو لحن أو لون.. هي أسمى مراتب العطاء.”
― خليل تقي الدين
