C.S. Lewis
“Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art.... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival.”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

Khaled Hosseini
“But better to get hurt by the truth than comforted with a lie.”
Khaled Hosseini

Naguib Mahfouz
“عاشر الزمان وجها لوجه بلا شريك. بلا ملهاة ولا مخدر. واجهه في جموده وتوقفه وثقله. إنه شيء عنيد ثابت كثيف وهو الذي يتحرك في ثناياه كما يتحرك النائم في كابوس. إنه جدار غليظ مرهق متجهم. غير محتمل إذا انفرد بمعزل عن الناس والعمل. كأننا لا نعمل ولا نصادق ولا نحب ولا نلهو إلا فرارا من الزمن. الشكوى من قصره ومروره أرحم من الشكوى من توقفه.”
نجيب محفوظ, الحرافيش

Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another What! You
“Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . .”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

Fernando Pessoa
“I've never done anything but dream. This, and this alone, has been the meaning of my life. My only real concern has been my inner life.”
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet
