Charlotte Brontë
“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Erich Fromm
“A person who has not been completely alienated, who has remained sensitive and able to feel, who has not lost the sense of dignity, who is not yet "for sale", who can still suffer over the suffering of others, who has not acquired fully the having mode of existence - briefly, a person who has remained a person and not become a thing - cannot help feeling lonely, powerless, isolated in present-day society. He cannot help doubting himself and his own convictions, if not his sanity. He cannot help suffering, even though he can experience moments of joy and clarity that are absent in the life of his "normal" contemporaries. Not rarely will he suffer from neurosis that results from the situation of a sane man living in an insane society, rather than that of the more conventional neurosis of a sick man trying to adapt himself to a sick society. In the process of going further in his analysis, i.e. of growing to greater independence and productivity,his neurotic symptoms will cure themselves.”
Erich fromm, The Art of Being

Giorgio Agamben
“مكن تعريف الشمولية الحديثة بأنها: "عملية تأسيسِ حربٍ أهلية قانونية من خلال تطبيق «حالة الاستثناء»"، بما يُتِيحُ التصفية الجسدية ليس فقط للخصوم السياسيين، بل لشرائح كاملة من المواطنين تعتبرهم السلطة، لسببٍ أو لآخر، غير قابلين للاندماج في النظام السياسي. منذ ذلك الحين، بات الخلق الطوعي لحالة طوارئ دائمة، حتى وإن كانت غير مُعلنةٍ –ربما- على الصعيد الفني للمصطلح، أحد الإجراءات الضرورية الهامة التي تلجأ إليها الدول المعاصرة، حتى تلك المُسمَّاةِ دولاً ديمقراطية”
Giorgio Agamben, State of Exception

Charlotte Brontë
“I do not think, sir, you have any right to command me, merely because you are older than I, or because you have seen more of the world than I have; your claim to superiority depends on the use you have made of your time and experience.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Kahlil Gibran
“أشعـر أنني أريد أن أقـول لكـ فقط أحبــك , ومن ثم أبـكي
!!

أبكـي لأنـها تعبـر عن الكثـير ولأنها تختصـر الكثـير

ولأن الأطفـال حين يعـجزون عـن التعبير يبكون

ويرددون كلمة واحـدة غير مفهومة ومبهمة”
جبران خليل جبران
