“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.”

“إغضب كما تشاء..
واجرح أحاسيسي كما تشاء
حطم أواني الزهر والمرايا
هدد بحب امرأةٍ سوايا..
فكل ما تفعله سواء.....
كل ما تقوله سواء..
فأنت كالأطفال يا حبيبي
نحبهم.. مهما لنا أساؤوا..
إغضب!
فأنت رائعٌ حقاً متى تثور
إغضب!
فلولا الموج ما تكونت بحور..
كن عاصفاً.. كن ممطراً..
فإن قلبي دائماً غفور
إغضب!”

“أدمنت احزاني
فصرت اخاف ان لا احزنا
I got addicted to my sorrows,
Until I have gotten scared of not being sorrowed.
وطعنت آلافا من المرات
حتى صار يوجعني بان لا اطعنا
And I was stabbed thousands of times,
Until it felt painful not to be stabbed.
ولعنت في كل اللغات
حتى صار يقلقني بان لا العنا
And I was cursed in all the languages,
Until I started being nervous of not being cursed.
ولقد تشابهت كل البلاد
فلا ارى نفسي هناك، ولا ارى نفسي هنا
And all the countries seemed the same,
That I don't see myself there, And I don't see myself here.”
