“أعرفك ، لأن روحي التقت روحك ، الا يكفي التقاء الارواح ليكون مادة للتعارف ..ما تالفت عليه الارواح يبقى متصلا حتى بعد الموت”
― أيمن العتوم, ذائقة الموت

“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

“-لِم نحلم ؟!
-!! لنهرب من الواقع
- ولماذا نهرب من الواقع ؟!
- لأننا نرفضه .
- ولماذا يكون الرفض ؟!
-لأنه ما من واقع كما يريد الانسان.
- لو رضي به كما هو لكان كما يريد
-ولكن من يرضى !!
-لا أحد
-تلك هي المشكله .”
― أيمن العتوم, يا صاحبي السجن

“Everyone must leave something behind when he dies, my grandfather said. A child or a book or a painting or a house or a wall built or a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted. Something your hand touched some way so your soul has somewhere to go when you die, and when people look at that tree or that flower you planted, you're there.

It doesn't matter what you do, he said, so long as you change something from the way it was before you touched it into something that's like you after you take your hands away. The difference between the man who just cuts lawns and a real gardener is in the touching, he said. The lawn-cutter might just as well not have been there at all; the gardener will be there a lifetime.”
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451
