“ من الصعب حقا أن يكون الإنسان امرأة فى هذا الشرق”
― هيفاء بيطار, أبواب مواربة

“I have lost years that I will never get back. Only now am I just beginning to live, on the verge of old age. It is painful and unfair. But today I have a different attitude to life: it can't be constructed from superficial things, no matter how attractive they may appear. Neither wealth not appearances have any importance now.
Pain gave me new life. It took a long time for me to die as Malika, General Oufkir's eldest daughter, the child of a powerful figure, of a past. I've gained an identity. My own identity. And that is priceless.
If there had not been all that waste, all that horror...I'd almost venture to say that my suffering made me grow. In any case, it changed me. for the better. It's as well to make the best of things.”
― Malika Oufkir, Stolen Lives: Twenty Years in a Desert Jail

“You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
Love like you'll never be hurt,
Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth.”
― William W. Purkey

“لم يحبها حقًّا، فقط شعر أنها مناسبة إلى حد كبير. لم تحبه يومًا، فقط شعرَت أنه فرصة لا ينبغي أن تضيع.”
