“للأبد ؟
ـ ماذا ؟
ـ ستظل تحبني للأبد ؟
ـ حتى تحترق النجوم وحتى ..
تفنى العوالم ..

حتى تتصادم الكواكب، وتذبل الشموس ..
وحتى ينطفئ القمر، وتجف البِحار والأنهار ..

حتى أشيخ فتتآكل ذكرياتي..
حتى يعجز لساني عن لفظ اسمك..
حتى ينبض قلبي للمرة الأخيرة ..

فقط عند ذلك ربما أتوقف
ربما ..”
― أحمد خالد توفيق

“بُلينا بقوم يظنون أن الله لم يهد سواهم.”
― ابن سينا

“The difference between my darkness and your darkness is that I can look at my own badness in the face and accept its existence while you are busy covering your mirror with a white linen sheet. The difference between my sins and your sins is that when I sin I know I'm sinning while you have actually fallen prey to your own fabricated illusions. I am a siren, a mermaid; I know that I am beautiful while basking on the ocean's waves and I know that I can eat flesh and bones at the bottom of the sea. You are a white witch, a wizard; your spells are manipulations and your cauldron from hell yet you wrap yourself in white and wear a silver wig.”
― C. JoyBell C.

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
― Maya Angelou, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
