“هكذا تسير الأمور أحيانا , فليست كل قراراتنا نتيجة حتمية لما سبقها ,
أحيانا نكون موزعين بين اختيارين , ونجد أنفسنا قد انجرفنا في طريق , ثم يسلمنا هذا الطريق لقرار جديد وهكذا.
بعد عام نجد أنفسنا في مكان لم نخطط إطلاقا أن نصل إليه , أحيانا نتراجع, لكن معظم الأوقات لا يمكنا فعل ذلك فنواصل التقدم.
وبعد عشرين عاما ننظر خلفنا ولا نتذكر أصلا لماذا فعلنا ذلك.”
― عزالدين شكري فشير, عناق عند جسر بروكلين

“Even when God seemed to have abandoned me, he was watching. Even when he seemed indifferent to my suffering, he was watching. And when I was beyond all hope of saving, he gave me rest. Then he gave me a sign to continue my journey.”
― Yann Martel, Life of Pi

“I was giving up. I would have given up - if a voice hadn't made itself heard in my heart. The voice said "I will not die. I refuse it. I will make it through this nightmare. I will beat the odds, as great as they are. I have survived so far, miraculously. Now I will turn miracle into routine. The amazing will be seen everyday. I will put in all the hard work necessary. Yes, so long as God is with me, I will not die. Amen.”
― Yann Martel, Life of Pi

“Well," said Pooh, "what I like best," and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called.”
― A. A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh
