“ إن ما تحتاجه مصر أساسا إنما هو ثورة نفسية، بمعني ثورة علي نفسها أولا ، وعلي نفسيتها ثانيا ،أي تغيير جذري في العقلية والمثل وأيديولوجية الحياة قبل أي تغيير حقيقي في حياتها وكيانها ومصيرها ...ثورة في الشخصية المصرية وعلي الشخصية المصرية ...ذلك هو الشرط المسبق لتغيير شخصية مصر وكيان مصر ومستقبل مصر”
― جمال حمدان, شخصية مصر: دراسة في عبقرية المكان

“This world cannot break you—unless you give it permission. And it cannot own you unless you hand it the keys—unless you give it your heart. And so, if you have handed those keys to dunya for a while—take them back. This isn’t the End. You don’t have to die here. Reclaim your heart and place it with its rightful owner:
God.”

“لماذا نُفكر دائمًا في نهايات الأشياء رغم أننا نعيش بدايتها !!؟
هل لأننا شُعوب تعشق أحزانها ؟ أم لأننا من كثرة ما اعتدنا من الخوف أصبحنا نخاف على كل شيء ، ومن أي شيء !
حتى أوقات سعادتنا نخشى عليها من النهاية !”
― فاروق جويدة, ليس للحب أوان

“When we miss a plane, lose a job, or find ourselves unable to marry the person we want, have we ever stopped to consider the possibility that it may have been for our own good? Allah tells us in the Qur’an: “…But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not.” (Qur’an, 2:216)”
― Yasmin Mogahed, Reclaim Your Heart
