“Beware, then, of the long word that's no better than the short word: "assistance" (help), "numerous" (many), "facilitate" (ease), "Individual" (man or woman), "remainder" (rest), "initial" (first), "implement" (do), "sufficient" (enough), "attempt" (try), "referred to as" (called), and hundreds more. Beware of all the slippery new fad words: paradigm and parameter, prioritize and potentialize. They are all weeds that will smother what you write. Don't dialogue with someone you can talk to. Don't interface with anybody.”
― William Zinsser, On Writing Well: The Classic Guide to Writing Nonfiction

“There are many good reasons for writing that have nothing to do with being published. Writing is a powerful search mechanism, and one of its satisfactions is to come to terms with your life narrative. Another is to work through some of life’s hardest knocks—loss, grief, illness, addiction, disappointment, failure—and to find understanding and solace.”
― William Knowlton Zinsser, On Writing Well: The Classic Guide to Writing Nonfiction

“You have no enemies, you say? Alas, my friend, the boast is poor. He who has mingled in the fray of duty that the brave endure, must have made foes. If you have none, small is the work that you have done. You’ve hit no traitor on the hip. You’ve dashed no cup from perjured lip. You’ve never turned the wrong to right. You’ve been a coward in the fight.”
― Charles Mackay

“تتكشف لنا حقيقة أحلامنا كلما أقتربنا منها عاماً بعد عام.

نرهن حياتنا في سبيل تحقيقها ، تمضي السنون. نكبر وتبقى الأحلام في سنها صغيرة.. ندركها.. نحققها.. و إذا بنا نكبرها بأعوام.


أحلام صغيرة لا تستحق عناء إنتظارنا طيلة تلك السنوات.”
