Rudyard Kipling
“The world is very lovely, and it's very horrible--and it doesn't care about your life or mine or anything else.”
Rudyard Kipling, The Light That Failed

Kahlil Gibran
“لا , لا ٔاريد ٔان يفهمني بشري ٕاذا كان فهمه ٕاياي ضرباً من العبودية المعنوية . وما ٔاكثر الذين يتوهمون ٔانهم يفهموننا لأنهم وجدوا في بعض مظاهرنا شئياً شبيهاً بما اختبروه مرة في حياتهم . وليتهم يكتفون بادعائهم ادراك ٔاسرارنا – تلك الأسرار التي نحن ذواتنا لا ندركها – ولكنهم يصموننا بعلامات و أرقام ثم يضعوننا علىٕ رف من رفوف ٔافكارهم واعتقاداتهم مثلما يفعل الصيدلي بقناني الدوية والمساحيق !”
جبران خليل جبران, Love Letters: The Love Letters of Kahlil Gibran to May Ziadah

Thomas Hardy, The Mayor of Casterbridge

Sally Mann
“I believe that photographs actually rob all of us of our memory.”
