“I loved her in spite of myself. I loved her immeasurably.
Infinitely. And I feared that love as much as I feared my own fury at the
world.”

“الفرق بين اللي حب بجد.. واللي حب الاهتمام بس .. تلات أرباع الجوازات بيبقى عشان بيحبوا الاهتمام.. بيعوض نقص جواهم أو بيخليهم يعيشوا فى موود الحب.. بس اللى هما مش عارفينه .. ان الحب مش تعويض نقص .. الحب اكتمال روح.”

“That was one other time when my whole body reacted to the fear and went out of my own control. My nerves came apart completely, and I started vomiting and vomiting. I couldn't stop. It had been such a narrow escape. I kept telling myself that I could take all of the pressure; but there were those times that my body seemed almost to shut itself down, to scream that what was happening was just too much.”

“It is the kind of love you can know only if you have felt the intense
hunger that makes your body eat itself at night. The kind you know
only after life shields you from falling bombs or bullets passing through
your body. It is the love that dives naked toward infinity’s reach. I think
it is where God lives.”
