“The master-economist must possess a rare combination of gifts .... He must be mathematician, historian, statesman, philosopher—in some degree. He must understand symbols and speak in words. He must contemplate the particular, in terms of the general, and touch abstract and concrete in the same flight of thought. He must study the present in the light of the past for the purposes of the future. No part of man's nature or his institutions must be entirely outside his regard. He must be purposeful and disinterested in a simultaneous mood, as aloof and incorruptible as an artist, yet sometimes as near to earth as a politician.”
― John Maynard Keynes

“ لا يريد الهمّ منك أكثر من أن تريدَه .. فيأتي! ”

“هي رسائل الحزن، لا لأنها من الحزن جاءت ولكن لأنها إلى الحزن انتهت، ثم لأنها من لسان كان سلماً يترجم عن قلب كان حرباً؛ لأن هذا التاريخ الغزلي كان ينبع كالحياة وكان كالحياة ماضياً إلى قبر..!”

“But this is touching, Severus,” said Dumbledore seriously. “Have you grown to care for the boy, after all?”
“For him?” shouted Snape. “Expecto Patronum!”
From the tip of his wand burst the silver doe. She landed on the office floor, bounded once across the office, and soared out of the window. Dumbledore watched her fly away, and as her silvery glow faded he turned back to Snape, and his eyes were full of tears.
“After all this time?”
“Always,” said Snape.”
