“I’ve been fighting to be who I am all my life. What’s the point of being who I am, if I can’t have the person who was worth all the fighting for?”
― Stephanie Lennox, I Don't Remember You

“ما نفتر نقسم يومنا إلى نصفين ، نصف نقضيه في الندم على مافات ، والنصف الآخر في القلق مما سيأتي ! ، ويضيع العمر بين مشكلات الماضي وتطلعات المستقبل ، وتنسل أحلامنا من بين أصابعنا !”
― كريم الشاذلي, أفكار صغيرة لحياة كبيرة

“It has often been said that power corrupts. But it is perhaps equally important to realize that weakness, too, corrupts. Power corrupts the few, while weakness corrupts the many. Hatred, malice, rudeness, intolerance, and suspicion are the faults of weakness. The resentment of the weak does not spring from any injustice done to them but from their sense of inadequacy and impotence. We cannot win the weak by sharing our wealth with them. They feel our generosity as oppression.”
― Eric Hoffer

“And what sort of lives do these people, who pose as being moral, lead themselves? My dear fellow, you forget that we are in the native land of the hypocrite.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
