Salma

“Do you think I am an automaton? — a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal — as we are!”
― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

“هناك احتمال آخر لتتويج مسعانا بغير الهزيمة، ما دمنا قررنا أننا لن نموت قبل أن نحاول أن نحيا ..”

“Home is the nicest word there is.”
― Laura Ingalls Wilder

“الله يأخذ بقدر ما يعطي و يعوض بقدر ما يحرم و ييسّر ما يعسّر .. و لو دخل كلٌّ منا قلب الاَخر لأشفق عليه و لرأي عدل الموازين الباطنيه برغم اختلال الموازين الظاهريه .. و لما شعر بحقد و لا بزهو و لا بغرور …”
― مصطفى محمود, أناشيد الإثم والبراءة
