“فاسمعي يا صغيرتي الحلوة، إذا تخاصمنا في المستقبل (هذا إذا كان لا بد من الخصام) يجب أن لا نفترق مثلما كنّا نفعل في الماضي بعد كل معركة. يجب أن نبقى، برغم الخصام، تحت سقف بيت واحد حتى نملّ الخصام فنضحك، أو يملّنا الخصام فيذهب هازًا رأسه.”
― جبران خليل جبران

“You cannot go back and make a new start, but you can start now and make a new ending”

“Reality is far more vicious than Russian roulette. First, it delivers the fatal bullet rather infrequently, like a revolver that would have hundreds, even thousands of chambers instead of six. After a few dozen tries, one forgets about the existence of a bullet, under a numbing false sense of security. Second, unlike a well-defined precise game like Russian roulette, where the risks are visible to anyone capable of multiplying and dividing by six, one does not observe the barrel of reality. One is capable of unwittingly playing Russian roulette - and calling it by some alternative “low risk” game.”
