― Matthew Quick, The Silver Linings Playbook

“I think it's strange to live in a house with someone you cannot talk to—especially when that someone is your father—and the thought makes me a little sad.”

“فما فائدة المعرفة إن لم يكن بإمكانك أن تغير شيئاً؟!
إنها سم تجعلك عاجزاً طوال حياتك.
فلا تستطيع أن تلفظها خارجاً، ولا تستطيع أن تموت!!”

“It hurts to look at the clouds, but it also helps, like most things that cause pain. So I need to run, and as my lungs burn and my back rebels with that stabbing knife feeling and my legs muscles harden and the half inch of loose skin around my waist jiggles, I feel as though my penance for the day is being done and that maybe God will be pleased enough to lend me some help, which I think is why He has been showing me interesting clouds for the past week.”
