Anton Chekhov
“...and with a burning pain in my heart I realized how unnecessary, how petty, and how deceptive all that had hindered us from loving was. I understood that when you love you must either, in your reasonings about that love, start from what is highest, from what is more important than happiness or unhappiness, sin or virtue in their accepted meaning, or you must not reason at all.”
Anton Chekhov, Short Stories by Anton Chekhov: About Truth, Freedom, Happiness, and Love

Kate Atkinson
“Why do cats sleep so much? Perhaps they've been trusted with some major cosmic task, an essential law of physics - such as: if there are less than 5 million cats sleeping at any one time the world will stop spinning. So that when you look at them and think, "what a lazy, good-for-nothing animal," they are, in fact, working very, very hard.”
Kate Atkinson

عبد الوهاب مطاوع
“هل لاحظت معى ان أكثر الناس فراغاً هم أكثرهم ضيقاً بالحياة وافتقاداً للسعادة ؟.. هل تعرف السبب ؟ .. أنا أعرفه .. لأن من أكثر أسباب شقاء الإنسان ضيق أفقه وكثرة انشغاله بنفسه وتفكيره فيها باستمرار كما لو كانت محور الكون .. ومن يشكون الفراغ لا يجدون ماينشغلون به سوى أنفسهم , وكلما ازداد انشغال أحدهم بنفسه رآها جديرة بحياة غير حياته”
عبد الوهاب مطاوع

Khaled Hosseini
“It may be unfair, but what happens in a few days, sometimes even a single day, can change the course of a whole lifetime...”
Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner
