“اليوم دعنا نتفق
لافرقَ عندكَ إنْ بقيتُ أو مضيتْ
لافرق عندك إن ضحكنا هكذا كذباً
وإن وحدي بكيتْ!
فأنا تركتُ أحبتي ولديكَ أحبابٌ وبيتْ..
وأنا هجرتُ مدينتي , وإليكَ يابعضي أتيتْ
وأنا اعتزلتُ الناسَ والدنيا
فما أنفقتَ لي من أجل أن أبقى؟!
وماذا قد جنيتْ؟؟!!
..
وأنا وهبتُكَ مُهجتي جهراً
فهل سراً نويتْ؟؟!!”

“I am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. Reality doesn't impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls.”
― Anais Nin

“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.”
― Anais Nin

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.”
