“مازال في قلبي بقايا .. أمنية
أن نلتقي يوماً ويجمعنا .. الربيع
أن تنتهي أحزاننا
أن تجمع الأقدار يوماً شملنا”
― فاروق جويدة, حبيبتي لا ترحلي

“Its hard to be a diamond in a rhinestone world.”
― Dolly Parton

“علمتني الحياة أن علينا أن نحب الناس بالطريقة التي يحبون أن نحبهم بها”
― مريد البرغوثي, رأيت رام الله

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose history is ended, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, whose literature is unread, whose music is unheard, whose prayers are no longer uttered. Go ahead, destroy this race. Let us say that it is again 1915. There is war in the world. Destroy Armenia. See if you can do it. Send them from their homes into the desert. Let them have neither bread nor water. Burn their houses and their churches. See if they will not live again. See if they will not laugh again. See if the race will not live again when two of them meet in a beer parlor, twenty years after, and laugh, and speak in their tongue. Go ahead, see if you can do anything about it. See if you can stop them from mocking the big ideas of the world, you sons of bitches, a couple of Armenians talking in the world, go ahead and try to destroy them.”
― WILLIAM SAROYAN
