“These were the months that shaped us.behind all our frustrations over all these years has been the wish to get back to those happy days.Once we began to see the world differently we could feel time running out on us and we were impatient with each other.Every disagreement was an interruption of what we knew was possible-and soon there was only interruption.And in the end time did run out,but memories are still there,accusing us,and we still can't let each other alone.”
― Ian McEwan, Black Dogs

“Much of my life had been devoted to trying not to cry in front of people who loved me, so I knew what Augustus was doing. You clench your teeth. You look up. You tell yourself that if they see you cry, it will hurt them, and you will be nothing but a Sadness in their lives, and you must not become a mere sadness, so you will not cry, and you say all of this to yourself while looking up at the ceiling, and then you swallow even though your throat does not want to close and you look at the person who loves you and smile.”
― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

“Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.”
― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

“يوم أحببتك، تمنيت لو أني متُّ قبل أن نلتقي خشية أن نفترق.
وحين افترقنا، أدركت أن في إمكان المرء أن يموت أكثر من مرة.
عندها، ما عُدت أخاف الموت.
صار الحب خوفي.
ثم قرأت قول أوفيد قبل عصور: «الرجال تقتلهم الكراهية، والنساء يقتلهن الحب»، فقررت أن أكرهك، عساك تجرّب الموت مرة واحدة!”
― أحلام مستغانمي
