“نرى لنُحب ؟
أم أنا نحب حبيبنا فنراه ؟
ونسلّم نفسنا للبحر ,
أم نختار طوق نجاة ؟
أليست زرقة البحر التفاني في عناق سماه ؟”
― أحمد بخيت, الليالي الأربع

“You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world...but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices.”
― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

“People in the real world always say, when something terrible happens, that the sadness and loss and aching pain of the heart will “lessen as time passes,” but it isn’t true. Sorrow and loss are constant, but if we all had to go through our whole lives carrying them the whole time, we wouldn’t be able to stand it. The sadness would paralyze us. So in the end we just pack it into bags and find somewhere to leave it.”
― Fredrik Backman, My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry

“For you, a thousand times over”
― Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner
