Kate Chopin
“I am losing my interest in human beings; in the significance of their lives and their actions. Some one has said it is better to study one man than ten books. I want neither books nor men; they make me suffer. Can one of them talk to me like the night – the Summer night? Like the stars or the caressing wind?”
Kate Chopin

Kate Chopin
“Paul is a strange fellow. He looks into the faces of people who pass us by. He tells me that in their eyes he reads the story of their souls. He knows men and women and the little children, and why they look this way and that way. He knows the reasons that turn them to and fro and cause them to go and come. I think I shall walk a space through the world with my friend Paul. He is very wise, he knows the language of God which I have not learned.”
Kate Chopin

Anton Chekhov
“Will those who will be living a hundred, two hundred years from now, those for whom we are now laying down the road to the future, will they remember us in their prayers? . . ."

"Man may not remember, but God will.”
Anton Chekhov, Uncle Vanya

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
“A feeling of sadness and longing,
That is not akin to pain,
And resembles sorrow only
As the mist resembles the rain.

Come, read to me some poem,
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soothe this restless feeling,
And banish the thoughts of day.

‘The Day is Done”
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW, The Day is Done

“1
لو أنك جئت.. قبيل ثلاثين عاماً
إلى موعدي المنتظر..
لكان تغيروجه القضاءِ..
ووجه القدرْ…

2
لو أنك جئت .. قبيل ثلاثين قرناً
لطرّزت بالكلمات يديكِ..
وبللت بالماء وجه القمرْ..



3
لوأنك كنت حبيبة قلبي..
قبيل ثلاثين قرناً..
لزادت مياه البحور..
وزاد اخضراءُ الشجر…

4
لو أنك كنتِ رفيقة دربي..
لفجرتُ من شفتيك الشموس..
وأخرجتُ من بين نهديكِ ..
ألف قمر..

5
لو أنك كنت حبيبة قلبي
قبيل ثلاثين قرناً..
تغير تاريخُ هذا البلد..
فقبلك .. ليس هناك نساء
وبعدكِ..
ليس هناك أحدْ!!


-أكتوبر ١٩٩٧”
