“سمائي فكرةٌ والأرض منفا ي المَفضل
.
وكلُّ ما في الأمر أَني لا أصدق غير حدسي”
― محمود درويش, لا أريد لهذي القصيدة أن تنتهي

“Remember that if I were born of the underworld, you were born of flowers. You are the blood the forest feeds upon, and it is you who gave the woods their dark magic. Time doesn’t exist, and in another world I never left you. I’ve transformed your wounds into a scepter for a queen. The nightcatcher may think that she’s had her victory - but your veins are buried in the map of the earth and she can never have you. She thinks she can own the universe because she’s enslaved gods and eaten stars, but she couldn’t even kill me, living here in her tunnels, because you protected me with your love.”
― Autumn Christian, We are Wormwood

“I swear, gentlemen, that to be too conscious is an illness--a real thorough-going illness.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Notes from the Underground

“الوقت الإنساني لا يسير في شكل دائري بل يتقدم في خط مستقيم. من هنا، لا يمكن للإنسان أن يكون سعيداً لأن السعادة رغبة في التكرار.”
― ميلان كونديرا, The Unbearable Lightness of Being
