“All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.”
― Leo Tolstoy , Anna Karenina

“It hurts to let go. Sometimes it seems the harder you try to hold on to something or someone the more it wants to get away. You feel like some kind of criminal for having felt, for having wanted. For having wanted to be wanted. It confuses you, because you think that your feelings were wrong and it makes you feel so small because it's so hard to keep it inside when you let it out and it doesn't coma back. You're left so alone that you can't explain. Damn, there's nothing like that, is there? I've been there and you have too. You're nodding your head.”
― Henry Rollins, The Portable Henry Rollins

“How did you go bankrupt?"
Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.”
― Ernest Hemingway, The Sun Also Rises

“هذه الصورة القديمة جامعة لأفراد أسرتي
وهذه جامعة لأصدقاء العهد القديم
نظرت إليهما طويلا حتى غرقت في الذكريات
جميع الوجوه مشرقة ومطمئنة وتنطق بالحياة
ولا إشارة ولو خفيفة إلى ما يخبئه الغيب
وها هم قد رحلوا جميعا فلم يبق منهم أحد
فمن يستطيع أن يثبت أن السعادة كانت واقعا حيا، لا حلما ولا وهما”
― نجيب محفوظ, أصداء السيرة الذاتية
