― Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

“God is not a technician. God is an Artist. This is the God who made you. The same God who lives inside of you. He comes into us, then comes out of us, in a million little ways. That's why there's freedom, even in the blah. Hope, even in the dark. Love, even in the fear. Trust, even as we face our critics. And believe in the midst of all that? It feels like strength and depth and wildflower spinning; it feels risky and brave and underdog winning. It feels like redemption. It feels like art.”
― Emily P. Freeman, A Million Little Ways: Uncover the Art You Were Made to Live

“Jafaa. In Persian, this very poetic word refers to all the wrongs you do to those who love you.”

“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
