“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
― Sun tzu, The Art of War

“Rejoice with glitters of ashes tonight
Sparkling for moon's spiced silver bite
Upon skin of darkness, loving night more
Storm begins unlocking cold wind's door”

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”
― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

“قولوا لها إنني لازلت أهواها

مهما يطول النوى لا أنسى ذِكراها

هي الأمالي من الدنيا هي أملي

هي السعادة ما أحلى وأشهاها

قولوا لها إنني لازلت أهواها

هي التي علّمتني كيف أعشقـُها

هي التي قد سقتني شَهْدَ ريّاها

الشّعر من وحيِها درٌّ مرصّعٌ

والفنّ من سحرها واللحن مغناها

روحٌ من الله سوّاها لنا بشراً

كساها حُسناً وجمّلها وحلاّها

فإن عبدتـُها لاإشراك بالله

لأنّني في هواها أعبدُ الله”
― شعر التراث
