“A stranger can see in an instant something in you that you might spend years learning about yourself. How awful we all are when we look at ourselves under a light, finally seeing our reflections. How little we know about ourselves. How much forgiveness it must take to love a person, to choose not to see their flaws, or to see those flaws and love the person anyway. If you never forgive you’ll always be alone.”
― Stephen Elliott, The Adderall Diaries

“The painter constructs, the photographer discloses.”
― Susan Sontag, On Photography

“الصُور الجماعية المُعلَّقة على الجدار بها شخص مفقود ؛
. دائماً يتنازل عن مكانهِ لِيلتقط الصُورة”
― Nour Albawardi

“Love blurs your vision; but after it recedes, you can see more clearly than ever. It's like the tide going out, revealing whatever's been thrown away and sunk: broken bottles, old gloves, rusting pop cans, nibbled fishbodies, bones. This is the kind of thing you see if you sit in the darkness with open eyes, not knowing the future.”
― Margaret Atwood, Cat's Eye
