“ماذا جنى من حياته الماضية؟ ماذا جنى غير الفراغ والدوار؟ قدّمتُ من الجهد فوق ما يطيق البشر، ولكنه جهد مضى باسم الطموح الجنوني، باسم الجشع، باسم الأنانية، باسم الكراهية، باسم الحقد، باسم العراك، ولا عمل واحد باسم الله! ـ”
― نجيب محفوظ, دنيا الله

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
― H. Jackson Brown Jr., P.S. I Love You

“But the cinephile is … a neurotic! (That’s not a pejorative term.) The Bronte sisters were neurotic, and it’s because they were neurotic that they read all those books and became writers. The famous French advertising slogan that says, “When you love life, you go to the movies,” it’s false! It’s exactly the opposite: when you don’t love life, or when life doesn’t give you satisfaction, you go to the movies.”
― François Truffaut

“You cannot find peace by avoiding life.”
― Michael Cunningham, The Hours
