“You can never know if a person forgives you when you wrong them. Therefore it is existentially important to you. It is a question you are intensely concerned with. Neither can you know whether a person loves you. It’s something you just have to believe or hope. But these things are more important to you than the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. You don't think about the law of cause and effect or about modes of perception when you are in the middle of your first kiss.”

“عندما نكون سعداء فعلاً لا يخطر لنا أن نتساءل إن كنا سعداء أم لا ، السعادة تصبح جزء منا ..أنت لا تتساءل إذا كانت يداك في مكانها أم لا ..نحن نتحسس الأشياء فقط عندما نشك في وجودها ”

“تمر بك أيام تشعر فيها بان كل شيء يثقل على صدرك
الذين يحبونك والذين يكرهونك والذين يعرفونك والذين لا يعرفونك
تشعر بالحاجة إلى أن تكون وحيدا كغيمة
أن تعيد النظر بأشياء كثيرة
أن تعود إلى ذاتك مشتاقا لتنبشها وتواجهها بعد طول هجر
.أن تفجر كل القنابل الموقوتة التي تسكنك”

“لقد قررت ذات يوم ,
أن أحتفظ بصناديق أعماقي سراً
صناديق لا تبوح بحقيقتها لـ مخلوق
وها أنا أبرُّ بقسمي حتى أقصاه..
ولم تعد أعماقي تبوح بسرّها حتى لي ..!”
