“I believe that there is one story in the world, and only one, that has frightened and inspired us, so that we live in a Pearl White serial of continuing thought and wonder. Humans are caught - in their lives, in their thoughts, in their hungers and ambitions, in their avarice and cruelty, and in their kindness and generosity too - in a net of good and evil. I think this is the only story we have and that it occurs on all levels of feeling and intelligence. Virtue and vice were warp and woof of our first consciousness, and they will be the fabric of our last, and this despite any changes we may impose on field and river and mountain, on economy and manners. There is no other story. A man, after he has brushed off the dust and chips of life, will have left only the hard, clean questions: Was it good or was it evil? Have I done well - or ill?”
― John Steinbeck, East of Eden

“I'm tough, I'm ambitious, and I know exactly what I want. If that makes me a bitch, okay.”
― Madonna

“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”
― Bob Marley

“هذه فلسفة ممتازة يجب أن يتذكرها الطغاة والأوغاد عامة .. يجب أن تُبقى لضحاياك شيئا يخافون أن يفقدوه .. لا تكن غبيا وتأخذ منهم كل شىء .. عندما يقيدون سجينا ويجردونه من ثيابه ويصعقونه بالكهرباء، فإنهم بهذا يكسبون خصماً عنيداً شرساً .. لقد صارت حياته كلها تنقسم إلى ما قبل الكهرباء وما بعدها .. ما قبل الكهرباء كانت حياته كلها خوفاً من الكهرباء .. بعدها لم يعد يخاف شيئاً .”
― أحمد خالد توفيق
