“I’m free, I think. I shut my eyes and think hard and deep about how free I am, but I can’t really understand what it means. All I know is I’m totally alone. All alone in an unfamiliar place, like some solitary explorer who’s lost his compass and his map. Is this what it means to be free? I don’t know, and I give up thinking about it.”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

“I opened myself to the gentle indifference of the world.”
― Albert Camus, L'Étranger

“But when the strong were too weak to hurt the weak, the weak had to be strong enough to leave.”
― Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being

“اامرء يمتلك الحقيقة والحرية بمقدار ما يكون حراً, وهو يكون حراً بمقدار ما يكون منفتحاً على الأشياء على نحو ما ني عليه, وينفتح المرء على الأشياء على نحو ما هي عليه بمقدار ما يتركها لتكون ما هي عليه. بحيث لا يعيد تشكيلها وإنما يشارك في انفتاحها فحسب”
― مارتن هايدجر
