“اكتب مبادئك بقلم جاف, حيث الرسوخ و الثبات والوضوح. واكتب آراءك بقلم رصاص,حيث التعديل والتصحيح والمراجعة”
― كريم الشاذلي, مالم يخبرني به أبي عن الحياة

“There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1. There's .1 and .12 and .112 and an infinite collection of others. Of course, there is a bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2, or between 0 and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to like taught us that. There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get, and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful.”
― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

“Nothing on this planet can compare with a woman’s love—it is kind and compassionate, patient and nurturing, generous and sweet and unconditional. Pure. If you are her man, she will walk on water and through a mountain for you, too, no matter how you’ve acted out, no matter what crazy thing you’ve done, no matter the time or demand. If you are her man, she will talk to you until there just aren’t any more words left to say, encourage you when you’re at rock bottom and think there just isn’t any way out, hold you in her arms when you’re sick, and laugh with you when you’re up. And if you’re her man and that woman loves you—I mean really loves you?—she will shine you up when you’re dusty, encourage you when you’re down, defend you even when she’s not so sure you were right, and hang on your every word, even when you’re not saying anything worth listening to. And no matter what you do, no matter how many times her friends say you’re no good, no matter how many times you slam the door on the relationship, she will give you her very best and then some, and keep right on trying to win over your heart, even when you act like everything she’s done to convince you she’s The One just isn’t good enough.
That’s a woman’s love—it stands the test of time, logic, and all circumstance. ”

“All I'm telling you to do is to be smart about it. Know that if this man isn't looking for a serious relationship, you're not going to change his mind just because you two are going on dates and being intimate. You could be the most perfect woman on the Lord's green earth-you're capable of interesting conversation, you cook a mean breakfast, you hand out backrubs like sandwiches, you're independent (which means, to him, that you're not going to be in his pockets)-but if he's not ready for a serious relationship, he going to treat you like sports fish.”

“إذا أصبح العبد وأمسى وليس همه إلا الله وحده، تحمل الله سبحانه حوائجه كلها وحمل عنه ما أهمه. وإذا أصبح العبد وأمسى والدنيا همه ، حمله الله همومها وغمومها ووكلها إلى نفسه”
― ابن قيم الجوزية

“للعبد بين يدي الله موقفان: موقف بين يديه في الصلاة، وموقف بين يديه يوم لقائه. فمن قام بحق الموقف الأول هَوَّن عليه الموقف الآخر، ومن استهان بهذا الموقف .ولم يوفِّه حقه شَدَّد عليه ذلك الموقف”
― ابن قيم الجوزية, الفوائد

“ولا يزال العبد يعاني الطاعة ويألفها ويحبها حتى يرسل الله -عز وجل- عليه الملائكة تؤزّه إليها أزّاً، وتحرّضه عليها، وتزعجه من فراشه ومجلسه إليها. فلو عطل المحسن الطاعة لضاقت عليه نفسه والأرض بما رحبت، وأحس نفسه أنه كالحوت إذا فارق الماء حتى يعاودها فتسكن نفسه وتقر عينه. ولا يزال يألف المعاصي ويحبها ويؤثرها، حتى يرسل الله عليه الشياطين تؤزّه إليها أزّاً .”
― ابن قيم الجوزية

“عليك بالمطالب العالية والمراتب السامية التي لا تنال إلا بطاعة الله، فإن الله عز وجل قضى أن لا ينال ما عنده إلا بطاعته. ومن كان لله كما يريد كان الله له فوق ما يريد، فمن أقبل عليه تلقاه من بعيد، ومن تصرف بحوله وقوته ألان له الحديد، ومن ترك لأجله أعطاه فوق المزيد، ومن أراد مراده الديني أراد ما يريد”
― ابن القيم الجوزية

“سأل رجل الشافعي رحمه الله فقال: يا أبا عبد الله، أيُّما أفضل للرجل: أن يمكن أوأن يبتلى؟ فقال الشافعي: لا يمكَّن حتى يبتلى، فإن الله ابتلى نوحاً، وإبراهيم، وموسى، وعيسى، ومحمداً صلوات الله وسلامه عليهم، فلما صبروا مكنهم، فلا يظن أحد أنه يخلص من الألم البتة.”
― ابن قيّم الجوزية, الفوائد
