“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.”

“كيف أشفق على الذي يبدد ألمه في الشكاية والتظلم فلا يبقى منه ما يستدعي الشفقة ؟ كل شفقتي تتجه إليك أنت الذي لا تشكو مع أن ألمك صامت لا حد له ولا نهاية .”

“When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.”
