“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”
― Bob Marley

“إنني أريدك بمقدار ما لاأستطيع أخذك، وأستطيع أن آخذك بمقدار ما ترفضين ذلك ، وأنت ترفضين ذلك بمقدار ماتريدين الاحتفاظ بنا معاً ، وأنت وأنا نريد أن نظل معا بمقدار ما يضعنا ذلك في اختصام دموي مع العالم.. إنها معادلة رهيبة ، ورغم ذلك فأنا أعرف بأنني لست أناالجبان، ولكنني أعرف بأن شجاعتي هي هزيمتي ، فأنت تحبين ، فيّ، أنني استطعت إلى الآن أن لا أخسر عالمي ، وحين أخسره سأخسرك، ومع ذلك فأنا أعرف أنني إذا خسرتك خسرته.”
― غسان كنفاني, رسائل غسان كنفاني إلى غادة السمان

“If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.”
― Toni Morrison
