“ليس من سائل مثل دمعة همت من مقلة لحبيب”
― Jalaluddin Rumi, رباعيات جلال الدين الرومي

“Jafaa. In Persian, this very poetic word refers to all the wrongs you do to those who love you.”
― Maziar Bahari, Then They Came for Me: A Family's Story of Love, Captivity, and Survival

“a person is a fluid process, not a fixed and static entity; a flowing river of change, not a block of solid material; a continually changing constellation of potentialities, not a fixed quantity of traits.”
― Carl R. Rogers, On Becoming A Person: A Therapist's View on Psychotherapy, Humanistic Psychology, and the Path to Personal Growth

“مثل حماقة
تكرّرت الحكاية،
وفي كلّ مرّة بحرقة بكيت
كمن على كتف المرآة نفسها ينكسر.
 
 
هكذا الأطفال
حتّى تنضَج قلوبهم.”
― سوزان عليوان, الحب جالس في مقهى الماضي
