“Successful people do work hard, but they also think before they act. They are proactive, not just reactive. Most people mentally have a sign on their desk that reads, “Don’t just sit there—do something!” The best advice I ever received was to revise the sign to read, “Don’t just do something—sit there!”
― Kenneth H. Blanchard, The Heart of a Leader: Insights on the Art of Influence

“The pit of melancholy was a bottomless one, and he was descending fast, falling further away from the good times. Such times often seemed tantalisingly within reach; he could see them, going on all around him. His mind was like a cruel prison, giving his captive soul a sight of freedom, but no more.”
― Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting

“ثبت اهتزاز الوتر
سكت الوتر
هذا الفتى يأكل من كتابتِه السَّهر
هذا الفتى يرعى
من مواسمه المطر
***

قبرٌ يضمك بعد أن
ضمتك كل قلوبنا زمنًا
وما زلنا بشعرك نأتزر
(لا تعتذر عما فعلت)
صنعتَ تاريخًا نحبكَ باسمه
والعابرون سيفرحون سيجلسون القرفصاء
يقول آخرهم من القوقاز شاعرهم مضى
لن يدركوا الكلمات باقيةً
ويمضي العابرون مع الكلام بلا أثر”
― محمد فرحات
