“So you think that two enemies—in the real world—can magically get over their differences and fall madly in love?”
― Lynn Painter, Better Than the Movies

“Acquire provisions of piety in this world for you will leave ,
And know there is no doubt that death is on its way.
The comfort you have here is all deceit and grief;
Your worlds life is absurd vanity.
This world is like a travelers camping ground;
He halts here in the evening and in the morning he is gone.”
― Anonymous , The Arabian Nights: Tales of 1001 Nights, Volume 1

“We two are equal in our love but she
Shows hardiness at times , while I have none
She fears malicious threats , but when I am held back
And threatened, then my love for her becomes madness”
― Anonymous, The Arabian Nights: Tales of 1001 Nights, Volume 1

“There was a time when the days were in our service,
While we were with each other in the happiest of lands.
Who will now bring me to the house of the dear ones,
Where the place is illuminated* and there is times delight*

* play on the name of Dau’ Al-makan, literally ‘light of the place’ and nuzhat Al-Zaman literally times delight (on the siblings of night 72)”
