“When I die, I'm going to tell God everything.”

“You asked me if you could see colours again, Salama. If we deserve to see them. I think we do. I think you can. There's too little of it in death. In pain. But that's not the only thing in the world. That's not all that Syria has. Syria was once the center of the world. Inventions and discoveries were made here; they built the world. Our history is in the Al-Zahrawi Palace, in our mosques, in our earth”

“كلُّ ليمونة ستنجب طفلاً ومحال أن ينتهي الليمون

Every lemon will bring forth a child, and the lemons will never die out”
