“الخيال.. هو ليل الحياة الجميل
هو حصننا وملاذنا من قسوة النهار الطويل
!إن عالم “الواقع” لا يكفى وحده لحياة البشر
إنه أضيق من أن يتسع لحياة إنسانية كاملة”
― عصفور من الشرق

“It is not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down:
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,
And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.
Tho’ much is taken, much abides; and tho’
We are not now that strength which in old days
Mov’d earth and heaven, that which we are, we are:
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”
― Ulysses

“هل تبكي الطبيعة أيها القمر فتكون في ديباج السماء كأنك دمعة في منمديل الطبيعة لم تجف بعد وقد بدأ فيها الجفاف.
أترى الطبيعة باكية وهي تلك التي ترسل بعض ضحكها دموعا تندي بها أجفان العيون النجلاءالتي تجعل الرجال العظام صغارا وهي عيون النساء والأطفال, لتبقى الطبيعة وحدها منفردة بالعظمة الرائعة التي لا يداخلها الغرور بها ولا تداخل الضحك منها؟”

“In mythos and fairy tales, deities and other great spirits test the hearts of humans by showing up in various forms that disguise their divinity. They show up in robes, rags, silver sashes, or with muddy feet. They show up with skin dark as old wood, or in scales made of rose petal, as a frail child, as a lime-yellow old woman, as a man who cannot speak, or as an animal who can. The great powers are testing to see if humans have yet learned to recognize the greatness of soul in all its varying forms.”
