“بعض الأحداث والحوادث التي نمّر فيها تعيد تشكيل حيواتنا من جديد، نشعر بعدها وكأننا ولدنا اشخاصاً آخرين، اشخاصاً لم يعودوا يشبهون أنفسهم”
― اثير عبد الله

“العــشـق : مـرض نـتـخـيـّل أننـا نـشـفـى مـنـه .. فـقـط لأن لا أحـد يـمـوت بـسـبـبـه نـظـريـا”
― أحمد مراد, الفيل الأزرق

“For those who are not frightened by the solitude, everything will have a different taste.

In solitude, they will discover the love that might otherwise arrive unnoticed.

In solitude, they will understand and respect the love that left them.

In solitude, they will be able to decide whether it is worth asking that lost love to come back or if they should simply let it go and set off along a new path.

In solitude, they will learn that saying ‘No’ does not always show a lack of generosity and that saying ‘Yes’ is not always a virtue.

And those who are alone at this moment, need never be frightened by the words of the devil: ‘You’re wasting your time.’

Or by the chief demon’s even more potent words: ‘No one cares about you.’

The Divine Energy is listening to us when we speak to other people, but also when we are still and silent and able to accept solitude as a blessing.

And when we achieve that harmony, we receive more than we asked for.”
― Paulo Coelho, Manuscript Found in Accra

“لا تَعْذُلِ المُشْتَاقَ في أشْواقِهِ حتى يَكونَ حَشاكَ في أحْشائِهِ
إنّ القَتيلَ مُضَرَّجاً بدُمُوعِهِ مِثْلُ القَتيلِ مُضَرَّجاً بدِمائِهِ
وَالعِشْقُ كالمَعشُوقِ يَعذُبُ قُرْبُهُ للمُبْتَلَى وَيَنَالُ مِنْ حَوْبَائِهِ”
― أبو الطيب المتنبي, ديوان المتنبي
