“لماذا تعذب نفسك بخوض معركة خاسرة؟ عد إلي فاطمة التي تحبك ،عد إلي ولدك ،رَبه علي ما دونته له ،كن رجلا صالحاً أميناً كن طبيباً كما أردت لنفسك دوماً .ابن بيتاً كالخضراء واملأه بالكتب ،دفئ فراشك البارد بفاطمة ،حف مجلسك بولدك وزوجته وأبنائه.
اجلسهم حول الكانون في الشتاء واحك لهم عن ايامك .ازرع في صحن دارك أشجار النارنج والياسمين ،واحف بركة ماء . حفها بأرائك تتكئ عليها في ليالي الصيف تتأمل السماء ،وتناجي النجوم في الليل.وبالقرب من ذلك ابن آرياً لغارب حتي يرق جلده وتبرز عظامه ،سيسألك أحفادك دهشة كيف ركبت ياجدي جواداً أعمي؟”
― محمد عبدالقهار, غارب
