“بعدت عن نظره شيئًا فشيئًا، سرت قشعريرة في جسده، مندهشًا من تلك الفتاة التي باغتته بأسطولها وأسلحتها الجوية وقواتها البرية، فاحتلته فجأة دون سابق إنذار، ورفعت لواءها أعلى ربوة قلبه، معلنة السيطرة عليه واحتلاله، فانهزمت دولة قلبه أمام جيشها العتيد.”
― Amir Atef, طارئ

“I have a history of making decisions very quickly about men. I have always fallen in love fast and without measuring risks. I have a tendency not only to see the best in everyone, but to assume that everyone is emotionally capable of reaching his highest potential. I have fallen in love more times than I care to count with the highest potential of a man, rather than with the man himself, and I have hung on to the relationship for a long time (sometimes far too long) waiting for the man to ascend to his own greatness. Many times in romance I have been a victim of my own optimism.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

“You need to learn how to select your thoughts just the same way you select your clothes every day. This is a power you can cultivate. If you want to control things in your life so bad, work on the mind. That's the only thing you should be trying to control.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
