“She wasn’t afraid of difficulties what frightened her was being forced to choose one particular path. Choosing a path meant having to miss out on others. She had a whole life to live and she was thinking that, in future, she might regret the choices she made now.
“I am afraid of committing myself” she thought to herself she wanted to follow all possible paths and ended up following none.”
― Paulo Coelho, Brida

“To be or not to be! Hamlet!! I beg to differ! How much more limiting could that question be? How much more restraining could it ever get? Do we only have two possible answers to a question? Do we only have two things to choose from? Are our options so restricted? Are we so grounded? Have we gone color blind? When did our retinas stop seeing the colors of a rainbow? Why do we print our experiences in duotone? In a game of multiple choice questions, how many answers could be correct? What number of choices do we have? Who gives us the options? When do we have to submit our selections? Who decides if we passed or failed?”

“الدنيا اساساً م الاول ..
شيء يشبه سلك السماعة ..
يتلعبك منك ف ثواني ..
و عشان يرجع مفرود تاني ..
لازم تتعذب و تعاني ..
و تفكه ف أكتر من ساعة ..”
― مصطفى إبراهيم, ويسترن يونيون فرع الهرم

“أبعد نُقطة بِالنِسبالك
جُوَّا الدايرة... هِيَّ مكانك
ولأن أساساً ف الدايرة
هنا هوَّ هناك
ف طبيعي تحس انك عايش
باتنين جُوَّاك”
― مصطفى إبراهيم, المانيفستو
