“Love is like a narcotic. At first it brings the euphoria of complete surrender. The next day, you want more. You’re not addicted yet, but you like the sensation, and you think you can still control things. You think about the person you love for two minutes, and forget them for three hours. But then you get used to that person, and you begin to be completely dependent on them. Now you think about him for three hours and forget him for two minutes. If he’s not there, you feel like an addict who can’t get a fix. And just as addicts steal and humiliate themselves to get what they need, you’re willing to do anything for love.”

“Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering.”

“أحيانا قد تجد نفسك وحيدًا تماما تتأمل منظر الغروب الجميل وتفكر.. هذا الجمال لا قيمة له لأن أحدا لا يشاركني إياه. في أوقات كتلك يجب أن تسأل: كم مرة كان مطلوبا منك أن تحب وهربت؟ كم مرة خفت أن تقترب من إنسان ما لتقول له بثقة واطمئنان أنك تحبه؟”

“Warriors of light always have a certain gleam in their eyes.
They are of this world, they are part of the lives of others, and they set out on their journey with no saddlebags and no sandals. They are often cowardly. They do not always make the right decisions.
They suffer over the most trivial things, they have mean thoughts, and sometimes believe that they are incapable of growing. They frequently deem themselves unworthy of any blessing or miracle.
They are not always quite sure what they are doing here. They spend many sleepless nights, believing that their lives have no meaning.
That is why they are warriors of light. Because they make mistakes. Because they ask themselves questions. Because they are looking for a reason - and are sure to find it.”
