“جئتك من كل منافي العمر
أنام على نفسي من تعبي”
― مظفر النواب, مظفر النواب: الأعمال الشعرية الكاملة

“Hey Clark', he said.'Tell me something good'. I stared out of the window at the bright-blue Swiss sky and I told him a story of two people. Two people who shouldn't have met, and who didn't like each other much when they did, but who found they were the only two people in the world who could possibly have understood each other. And I told him of the adventures they had, the places they had gone, and the things I had seen that I had never expected to. I conjured for him electric skies and iridescent seas and evenings full of laughter and silly jokes. I drew a world for him, a world far from a Swiss industrial estate, a world in which he was still somehow the person he had wanted to be. I drew the world he had created for me, full of wonder and possibility.”
― Jojo Moyes, Me Before You

“أعدك أن أنام
غير أنى متعب
والمشقة فى قلبى لا فى الطريق
والعتم فى عينى
في سمعى
فى الأعوام التى توالت عاما بعد عام
ولم أر

أعدك أن أنام
أن أنتظر الصباح المقبل
وما يليه
لكنى مجبر علي الرحيل الآن،
لا عمل أو موعد أو نزهة أو أى
شىء من هذا القبيل
فأنا متعب وقد خدمت روحى ما استطعت”
― بسام حجار, مجرد تعب

“إن من يحمل مصباحه خلف ظهره لا يرى غير ظله أمامه . طاغور”
― سعود السنعوسي, سجين المرايا
