“أنا لن أتشاجر . ليتشاجر ويتقاتل سيدانا ،وهناك يلقيان بعضهما، ونحن نشرب ونعيش، فإن الزمن يسرق منا الحياة والدنيا فانية، وليس من واجبنا تقديم مشهيات للموت، حتى يقضى علينا قبل الأوان، ولنترك أنفسنا ثمارا تسقط عند نضجها.”

“To grow a forest requires the right soil, favourable climatic conditions, sometimes the patient work of caretakers over many years. All it takes to make it burn is a single match thrown by a madman in an instant. To break the silence of a crowd, a shout is enough. To dirty a square, cleaned by the patient work of many, all it takes is a single drunken madman. To do good requires many people united, to do evil requires only one. We are in danger of overestimating the number of wicked or even just ignorant people and underestimating the number of generous people who care about the common good. Let us not be discouraged by the folly of a few, there are many of us. Let us stand united.”

“To be awakened is to be find the light digging the dust.....to open doors to that which lay in slumber.. To be awakened is to chase away the fright and welcome the hope....for it is the pathway to the joy of a new beginning... To be awakened is to take your soul into the light... though the clouds are so thick...for godliness rains through the burst of sky.... To be awakened is to make peace with all that has left and all that remains... To be awakened is to know loss and yet to be in a festival of colors......”
