― Will Rogers

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“بثثْت شكواي، فذابَ الجليدُ ... وأَشفق الصخرُ، ولان الحديدْ
وقلبُك القاسي على حاله ... هيهاتَ! بلْ قَسْوَتُه لي تَزيدْ”
― أحمد شوقي

“Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing.”
