“The greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God.”

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

“مهما توارى الحلم في عيني
وأرقني الأجل
مازلت ألمح في رماد العمر
شيئا من أمـَل ..
فغداً ستنبت في جبين الأفق
نجمات جديدة
وغداً ستورق في ليالي الحزن
أيام سعيدة
وغدا أراك على المدى
شمسا تضئ ظلام أيامي
و إن كانت بعيدة”
― لو أننا لم نفترق
وأرقني الأجل
مازلت ألمح في رماد العمر
شيئا من أمـَل ..
فغداً ستنبت في جبين الأفق
نجمات جديدة
وغداً ستورق في ليالي الحزن
أيام سعيدة
وغدا أراك على المدى
شمسا تضئ ظلام أيامي
و إن كانت بعيدة”
― لو أننا لم نفترق
