“If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.”
― Toni Morrison

“I enjoy melancholic music and art. They take me to places I don't normally get to go.”
― Criss Jami, Killosophy

“أتلمَّس أحوالي منذ وُلدتُ إلى اليوم
وفي يأسي أتذكر..
أن هناك حياةً بعد الموتِ
هناك حياة بعد الموت
ولا مشكلة لدي
لكني اسأل: يا الله.. أهناك حياة قبل الموت؟”
― مريد البرغوثي

“I see everything as if in a dark mirror, as if through smoked glass. I view the world in the same way as others look at the Sun in eclipse. Thus I see the Earth in eclipse. I see us moving about blindly in eternal Gloom, like the May bugs trapped in a box by a cruel child. It's easy to harm and injure us, to smash up our intricately assembled, bizarre existence. I interpret everything as abnormal, terrible and threatening. I see nothing but Catastrophes. But as the Fall is the beginning, can we possibly fall even lower?”
― Olga Tokarczuk, Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead
