“In those days, I didn't understand anything. I should have judged her according to her actions, not her words. She perfumed my planet and lit up my life. I should never have run away! I ought to have realized the tenderness underlying her silly pretensions. Flowers are so contradictory! But I was too young to know how to love her.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“There is no friend as loyal as a book.”
― Ernest Hemingway

“Do you hate people?”

“I don't hate them...I just feel better when they're not around.”
― Charles Bukowski, Barfly

“على الإنسان أن يتعوّد .
يجب أن يتعوّد على كُل شيء :
البرد ، الوحدة ، الضجر ، وتراءت لي كلمة هزيمة
كدّت أقولها ، لكنْ غصّة أقربُ إلى يدٍ ثقيلة حزّت رقبتي .”
― عبد الرحمن منيف
