“و كن من أنتَ حيث تكون
و احمل عبءَ قلبِكَ وحدهُ”
― محمود درويش

“هــو الكــونُ حـيٌّ, يحـبُّ الحيـاة
ويحــتقر المَيْــتَ, مهمــا كــبُرْ
فـلا الأفْـق يحـضن ميْـتَ الطيـورِ
ولا النحــلُ يلثــم ميْــتَ الزهـرْ ”
― أبو القاسم الشابي, أغاني الحياة

“And even as each one of you stands alone in God's knowledge, so must each one of you be alone in his knowledge of God and in his understanding of the earth.”
― Khalil Gibran

“Love is not love which alters it when alteration finds, or bends with the remover to remove: O no! It is an ever fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken; it is the star to every wandering bark whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks within his bending sickle's compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, but bears it out, even to the edge of doom.”
― William Shakespeare, Shakespeare's Sonnets
