Cheryl Strayed
“But I wasn’t out here to keep myself from having to say I am not afraid. I’d come, I realized, to stare that fear down, to stare everything down, really—all that I’d done to myself and all that had been done to me. I couldn’t do that while tagging along with someone else.”
Cheryl Strayed, Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail

“If you allow people to make more withdrawals than deposits in your life, you will be out of balance and in the negative before you know it. Know when to close the account. It's always better to be alone with dignity than in a relationship that constantly requires you to sacrifice your happiness and self-respect.”
Oscar Auliq-Ice

Amir Levine
“Getting attached means that our brain becomes wired to seek the support of our partner by ensuring their psychological and physical proximity. If our partner fails to reassure us, we are programmed to continue our attempts”
Amir Levine, Attached: The New Science of Adult Attachment and How It Can Help You Find—and Keep—Love

Jorge Luis Borges
“- ابحث لمتعة البحث لا لمتعة العثور.
- الباب هو الذي يختار لا المرء.
- لا تحكم على الشجرة بثمرها ولا على المرء بأعماله، فربما صارت إلى الأفضل أو إلى الأسوأ.
- لا شيء يبنى فوق الحجر بل يبنى كل شيء على الرم، بيد أن واجبنا أن نبني وكأن الرمل حجر.
- طوبى لفقير بغير مرارة، وغنيّ بغير كِبر.
- طوبى للشجعان، الذين يقبلون الهزيمة أو التصفيق بالروح نفسها.
- طوبى لمن يحفظون في ذاكرتهم كلمات لفيرجيل أو يسوع، لأنها ستشع نوراً.
- طوبى للمحبوبين، وللأحبة، ولمن بوسعهم التخلي عن الحب.
- طوبى للسعداء.”
خورخي لويس بورخيس

Cheryl Strayed
“Uncertain as I was as I pushed forward, I felt right in my pushing, as if the effort itself meant something. That perhaps being amidst the undesecrated beauty of the wilderness meant I too could be undesecrated, regardless of what I’d lost or what had been taken from me, regardless of the regrettable things I’d done to others or myself or the regrettable things that had been done to me. Of all the things I’d been skeptical about, I didn’t feel skeptical about this: the wilderness had a clarity that included me.”
Cheryl Strayed, Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail
