“هناك لحظة تدرك فيها أن الخطأ يسود وينتشر من حولك وفي لحظة كهذه يصير القابض علي المنطق والصواب كالقابض علي الجمر . تشعر بالغربة والاختلاف ولربما يعتبرونك مجنونا أو علي شيء من العته .. الأدهي أن لديك فضائل لكنهم لا يرون فيها أي قيمة . بعد قليل تأتي اللحظة التي تقرر فيها أن تتخلي عن عينيك لتصير كالآخرين . هذه اللحظة آتية ولا ريب فلا تشك فيها .. لكن لو كنت محظوظا لرأيت الفجر وقتها وعرفت فداحة ما ستفقده..”
― أحمد خالد توفيق, شاي بالنعناع

“It is indisputable that the being whose capacities of enjoyment are low, has the greatest chance of having them fully satisfied; and a highly endowed being will always feel that any happiness which he can look for, as the world is constituted, is imperfect. But he can learn to bear its imperfections, if they are at all bearable; and they will not make him envy the being who is indeed unconscious of the imperfections, but only because he feels not at all the good which those imperfections qualify.

It is better to be a human being dissatisfied than a pig satisfied; better to be Socrates dissatisfied than a fool satisfied. And if the fool, or the pig, is of a different opinion, it is only because they only know their own side of the question.”
― John Stuart Mill, Utilitarianism

“Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist.”

“There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into sun”
― Pablo Picasso
