“لهذا عليّ أن أعود
إلى أماكن كثيرة آتية
لألتقي بي
وأتفحصني دون توقف.
دون شاهد سوى القمر،
ثم لأصفّر بسعادة
واطئاً أحجاراً وأتربة.
دون مهمة أخرى سوى الحياة.
ودون أسرة سوى الطريق”

“We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.”

“I believe that what we become depends on what our fathers teach us at odd moments, when they aren't trying to teach us. We are formed by little scraps of wisdom.”
