“May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art -- write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.”
― Neil Gaiman

“An intellectual? Yes. And never deny it. An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself. I like this, because I am happy to be both halves, the watcher and the watched. "Can they be brought together?" This is a practical question. We must get down to it. "I despise intelligence" really means: "I cannot bear my doubts.”
― Albert Camus

“أنا أحسن واحد يقنعك تحكي…

ومابيحكيش…

وأحسن واحد يقنعك تبكي…

...وما بيبكيش…

أنا أحسن واحد يقنعك تفرح….

وأحسن واحد يقنعك تجرح…

أنا أحسن واحد ميت….

يقدر يقنعك….تعيش…”
― مصطفى إبراهيم, المانيفستو
