“تبدو المصائب كبيرة تقبض الروح ثم يأتي ماهو أعتى و أشد فيصغر ما بدا كبيراً و ينكمش متقلصاً في زاوية من القلب و الحشا”

“مش كل مره هتتعب فيها هتوصل للى انت عايزه .. بس عمرك ما هتوصل للى انت عايزه من غير ما تتعب ..”
― عمر طاهر, كابتن مصر: ألبوم ساخر للمراهقين

“A person who has not been completely alienated, who has remained sensitive and able to feel, who has not lost the sense of dignity, who is not yet "for sale", who can still suffer over the suffering of others, who has not acquired fully the having mode of existence - briefly, a person who has remained a person and not become a thing - cannot help feeling lonely, powerless, isolated in present-day society. He cannot help doubting himself and his own convictions, if not his sanity. He cannot help suffering, even though he can experience moments of joy and clarity that are absent in the life of his "normal" contemporaries. Not rarely will he suffer from neurosis that results from the situation of a sane man living in an insane society, rather than that of the more conventional neurosis of a sick man trying to adapt himself to a sick society. In the process of going further in his analysis, i.e. of growing to greater independence and productivity,his neurotic symptoms will cure themselves.”
― Erich fromm, The Art of Being

“- الله اكبر مسلمون يستبدون بالمسلمين ؟!
- استغربت مثلكم عندما وجدت اهل مصر يكرهون حكامهم كما نكره نحن حكامنا الاسبان, واستغربت ااكتر عندما رايت بعيني وسمعت كيف يشير الحكام الى الرجال من أهل البلاد فيقول (( مصري فلاح )) يقولها بتعال و ازدراء وكأنه واحد من الأسبان يشير لواحد منا ((بعربي كلب ))”
