“Reality doesn't impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls.”

“أشعـر أنني أريد أن أقـول لكـ فقط أحبــك , ومن ثم أبـكي
!!

أبكـي لأنـها تعبـر عن الكثـير ولأنها تختصـر الكثـير

ولأن الأطفـال حين يعـجزون عـن التعبير يبكون

ويرددون كلمة واحـدة غير مفهومة ومبهمة”
― جبران خليل جبران
