“Give me a daughter with your stubborn heart, or your even temper. Give our children your dark-bright eyes, or your enchanted smile. So that even when we are gone, the world will find within them all of the reasons why I loved you”
― Nizar Qabbani

“You are always new. THe last of your kisses was ever the sweetest; the last smile the brightest; the last movement the gracefullest. When you pass'd my window home yesterday, I was fill'd with as much admiration as if I had then seen you for the first time...Even if you did not love me I could not help an entire devotion to you.”
― John Keats, Bright Star: Love Letters and Poems of John Keats to Fanny Brawne

“عشرون عاماً فوق درب الهوى

ولا يزال الدرب مجهولا


فمرة كنت أنا قاتلاً

وأكثر المرات مقتولا


عشرون عاماً .. يا كتاب الهوى

ولم أزل في الصفحة الأولى!”
― نزار قباني, الرسم بالكلمات

“I sat with my anger long enough until she told me her real name was grief.”
― C.S. Lewis
