والهواءُ الذي يتسلل تحت الثيابْ
ينحني خائفاً أن يلامسَ قلبي”
― محمد علي شمس الدين, أناديك يا ملكي وحبيبي

“I know we're not saints or virgins or lunatics; we know all the lust and lavatory jokes, and most of the dirty people; we can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we don't know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we don't care that we don't.”
― Dylan Thomas

“But how could you live and have no story to tell?”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, White Nights

“We all steal, but if we're smart we steal from great directors. Then, we can call it influence.”
― Krzysztof Kieslowski
