“للمرء أن يكون على ثقة تامة من أن كل فكرة يتبناها عموم الناس، وكل تصوّر يتلقفونه، سيكون ضربًا من الحماقة والبلاهة، وذلك لمجرد أنه كان قادرًا على اجتذاب الأغلبية إليه.”
― آلان دي بوتون, Status Anxiety

“As a Wanderer, you must be true to yourself. You cannot continue to follow the crowd.”
― Bill Plotkin, Soulcraft: Crossing into the Mysteries of Nature and Psyche

“Your new life is going to cost you your old one.
It’s going to cost you your comfort zone and your sense
of direction.
It’s going to cost you relationships and friends.
It’s going to cost you being liked and understood.
It doesn’t matter.
The people who are meant for you are going to meet you
on the other side. You’re going to build a new comfort
zone around the things that actually move you forward.
Instead of being liked, you’re going to be loved. Instead of
being understood, you’re going to be seen.
All you’re going to lose is what was built for a person you
no longer are.”
― Brianna Wiest, The Mountain Is You: Transforming Self-Sabotage Into Self-Mastery

“إن احساسنا بالهوية أسير في قبضة أحكام من نعيش بينهم.”
