“أيعقل أن تكون المسافة الفاصلة ما بين العقل والقلب بهذا الاتساع ؟”
― أحمد فال بن الدين, الحدقي

“Maybe we're just born to love and worry about the people we know, and to go on loving and worrying even when there are more important things we should be doing. And if that means the human species is going to die out, isn't it in a way a nice reason to die out, the nicest reason you can imagine? Because when we should have been reorganising the distribution of the world's resources and transitioning collectively to a sustainable economic model, we were worrying about sex and friendship instead. Because we loved each other too much and found each other too interesting. And I love that about humanity, and in fact it's the very reason I root for us to survive - because we are so stupid about each other.”
― Sally Rooney, Beautiful World, Where Are You

“In any case, in talking about the past we lie with every breath we draw.”
― William Maxwell, So Long, See You Tomorrow

“لست انطوائية، ولا أكره التعرف على أشخاص جدد، لكن هناك بعض الأوقات التي لا أحب فيها إلا الهدوء والتواصل مع من في دائرتي الدافئة المقربة، وأي إزعاج في هذه الأوقات، حتى لو من شخص عابر مثل صديق شمس يؤرقني.”
― ميرنا الهلباوي, مر مثل القهوة حلو مثل الشوكولا
