“وأنـا !!سأبـقى العـشبة الصـفـراء المنـسـيّة ...
ايُّ يد قـادرة عـلى أن تجـتـثّـنـي من هـذه الـارض ؟”
― ليلى العثمان, صمت الفراشات

“We could never have loved the earth so well if we had had no childhood in it, if it were not the earth where the same flowers come up again every spring that we used to gather with our tiny fingers as we sat lisping to ourselves on the grass, the same hips and haws on the autumn hedgerows, the same redbreasts that we used to call ‘God’s birds’ because they did no harm to the precious crops. What novelty is worth that sweet monotony where everything is known and loved because it is known?”
― George Eliot, The Mill on the Floss

“Until the lions have their own historians, the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter.”
― Chinua Achebe (Author)

“No matter how much you love someone, you still want to have you own way.”
― Chuck Palahniuk, Lullaby
