“You make the world come alive. You make the world colorful. You are the inspiration behind all that happens. You are the pillar of strength to many around you, the centrifugal force of your own little world, called family. I love being a women and celebrate being one everyday, hope you all do too!! And to all those who battle their various circumstances, the hurdles, the sacrifices and the compromises they make, wish them all inner strength! Happy Women's Day!”
― Deeba Salim Irfan

“طوبى للذين لا يبيتون أسرى ما يملكون، لأنهم سوف يضحون أحرارا.
وطوبى لمن يذكرون أتراحهم، وفى أتراحهم يرقبون أفراحهم.
وطوبى للذين يتضورون جوعاً وينشدون الحق والجمال، فسيكون لهم من جوعهم الخبر الذى يأكلون، ومن ظمئهم الماء القراح الذى يشربون.
وطوبى لذوى الكرم والحلم، لهم من كرمهم وحلمهم خير عزاء وسلوى.
وطوبى للذين قد طهرت قلوبهم، لأنهم لن يكونوا بعيدين من الله.”
― جبران خليل جبران, يسوع ابنْ الإنسان

“The artist is always beginning. Any work of art which is not a beginning, an invention, a discovery is of little worth.”
― Ezra Pound

“I keep drawing the trees, the rocks, the river, I'm still learning how to see them; I'm still discovering how to render their forms. I will spend a lifetime doing that. Maybe someday I'll get it right.”
― Alan Lee
