“I usually get distracted when I’m on the internet. I open one or two tabs to look something up for school but it turns out that I open more than 30 tabs, most of them irrelevant to my research. It’s funny because it reminds me of getting to know people in my life. I have a goal and spending time with too many people might delay me from achieving it. I see it as if people were internet browser tabs.”
― Abdullah Abu Snaineh, Armband of Being

“Are you sick now?"
"No."
"Then what's wrong?"

― Charles Bukowski, Factotum

“لم يقتل الحزن أحد،
ولكنه جعلنا فارغين من كل شيء!”

“وقد زعموا أن المحب إذا دنا يَملُّ وَأنَّ النَّأْيَ يَشْفِي مِنَ الْوَجْدِ
بَكُلٍّ تدَاوَيْنَا فلمْ يُشْفَ ما بِنَا على أنَّ قُرْبَ الدَّارِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْبُعْدِ”
― قيس بن الملوح, ديوان قيس بن الملوح: مجنون ليلى
