“حياتي لو اعتبرت أنهالا تستحق سوى النسيان، فهذا يعني أنني لم استحق العيش”

“David Hume, the great­est skep­tic of them all, once remarked that after a gath­er­ing of skep­tics met to pro­claim the verac­i­ty of skep­ti­cism as a phi­los­o­phy, all of the mem­bers of the gath­er­ing nonethe­less left by the door rather than the win­dow. I see Hume’s point. It was all just talk. The solemn philoso­phers weren’t tak­ing what they said seri­ous­ly.”
― Philip K. Dick

“ في رأسي صوت يهمس لي بإستمرار بأنني سأشعر قريبًا بالملل, و بأن جسارتي ستأمرني غدًا بالرحيل كما تأمرني اليوم بالبقاء, و بأنه سيتملّكني حينها إلحاح بالهروب كما يتملّكني اليوم إلحاح بالإنغماس ”
― أمين معلوف, التائهون

“It is well known that humor, more than anything else in the human make-up, can afford an aloofness and an ability to rise above any situation, even if only for a few seconds. … The attempt to develop a sense of humor and to see things in a humorous light is some kind of a trick learned while mastering the art of living. Yet it is possible to practice the art of living even in a concentration camp, although suffering is omnipresent.”
― Viktor E. Frankl
