“أن تصل متأخراً خير من ان لا تصل ابداً هذه الكذبة التى صنعها لنا التاريخ لم تعد كافية لتسد جوع الحقيقة أن الأشياء التى لا تصل بوقتها لا تستحقنا ابدا واجه نفسك مرة وتعرف عليها إن أقسى مايشوه ملا محك فى الحب هو أن تنظ إليه بعين الأنتظار وحين لا تفهم الحب لا تُحمل الأخرين خطيئة أنك غبى جدا وحين لا تسمع لا ترجم الأخرين بتهم قصر أصواتهم”
― معجب الشمري, في عقيدة الحب كلنا يهود

“Cities are erected on spiritual columns. Like giant mirrors, they reflect the hearts of their residents. If those hearts darken and lose faith, cities will lose their glamour.”
― Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love

“The soul is placed in the body like a rough diamond, and must be polished, or the luster of it will never appear.”
― Daniel Defoe

“I am frightened at the prospect of how much I might love you, because I know the price it brings, and just thinking of you has begun the investment process within my heart. It would be easier to never invest at all, to hold all vulnerability close to my chest, not allowing anyone to enter my safe. But what a cruel thing it would be, to deny an opportunity to love a soul as beautiful as yours. I’m going to hope, and hope, and hope, until one day I do something. Maybe then, we’ll be able to find that place that we have both wanted for so long. Maybe then, we’ll have each other. I’m not reaching for stars anymore. I’m reaching for you, and honestly, that’s far more beautiful than a night full of dancing flames. I am not good with words, but still my words dance out of chaos, forming something beautiful.”
― Todd LaBerge, Unwritten Letters to You
