“Pour celui qui a traversé la vallée des ténèbres, l'étincelle est feu d'artifices, le gazouillis est symphonie, le nuage tapis volant et chaque nouveau jour un miracle.”
― Yasmina Khadra, Les Vertueux

“The will to extend one’s self for the purpose of nurturing one’s own or another’s spiritual growth… Love is as love does. Love is an act of will-namely, both an intention and an action. Will also implies choice. We do not have to love. We choose to love.”
― bell hooks, All About Love: New Visions

“Des choses incroyables vous tombent dessus, détournent le cours de votre existence et le bouleversent de fond en comble. Vous avez beau fuir au bout du monde, vous réfugier là où personne ne risque de vous trouver, elles vous suivent à la trace comme une meute de chiens errants et font de vous quelqu'un qui ne vous ressemble en rien et qui devient la seule histoire que l'on retiendra de vous.
Certains appellent ces choses "mektoub".”
― Yasmina Khadra, Les Vertueux

“Classical psychological theory tends to, by absolute omission, split the human psyche away from relationship to the land on which humans live, away from knowledge of the cultural etiologies of malaise and unrest, and also to sever psyche from the politics and policies which shape the inner and outer lives of humans-- as though that outer world were not just as surreal, not just as symbol-laden, not just as impacting and imposing upon one's soul-life as the inner din. The land, the culture, and the politics in which one lives contribute every bit as much to the individual's psychic landscape and are as valuable to consider in these lights as one's subjective milieu.”
