“All of us, at first, had high hopes of helping Jammie - he was so personable, so likable, so quick and intelligent, it was difficult to believe that he might be beyond help. But none of us had ever encountered, even imagined, such a power of amnesia, the possibility of a pit into which everything, every experience, every event, would fathomlessly drop, a bottomless memory-hole that would engulf the whole world.”
― Oliver Sacks, The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Other Clinical Tales

“كثيراً من النزعات المناقضة لسلوك الإنسان العادي ، تُخترن في العقل الباطن ، وفي لحظة معينة من تراكمِ هذه المخزونات ، يحدثُ شيءٌ مثل القشة التي قصمت ظهر البعير ، فيصدرُ عن المرءِ فعل مناقض تمامًا لكل ما قام به من قبل ، ويصبح الإنسانُ المسالم الذي لم يرتكب في حياته عملاً واحداً من أعمالِ العنف قادراً على ارتكاب أبشع جرائم القتل عمداً !!”
― صنع الله إبراهيم -اللجنة

“I have grown to love secrecy. It seems to be the one thing that can make modern life mysterious or marvellous to us. The commonest thing is delightful if one only hides it. When I leave town now I never tell my people where I am going. If I did, I would lose all my pleasure. It is a silly habit, I dare say, but somehow it seems to bring a great deal of romance into one's life.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
