Quote by Rasmenia Massoud

“Whatever it is that you know, or that you don’t know, tell me about it. We can exchange tirades. The comma is my favorite piece of punctuation and I’ve got all night.”

“على الإنسان أن يُدرك أنّ أوقات الانشغال نعمة، وأنّ التَّعّب المُثمر نعمة، وكلّ دقيقةٍ تقضيها في الاشتغال على نفسك وعقلك وقلبك، هي استثمارٌ مؤجّل لو لَم تَرَ النتائج الآن! النَّفس تَميل لراحتها، ولاتعلَم أنّها ترتاح بالتَّعَب. كلّ لحظة قراءةْ استصعَبتَها لكنّك أكمَلتَ الكتاب، كلّ مشروعٍ لم تتركه في المنتصف، كلّ فكرةٍ عزمت على إتمامها، كلّ لحظةٍ استثمرت ما فيها، كلّ برنامجٍ ودورةٍ ومحاضرةٍ ولقاءٍ أخذت منه حدّ الارتواء! كلّ دفترٍ ملأته، و قلمٍ أنهَيتَه، وكتابٍ قرأته، وحقيبةٍ حملتها، وخطىً سِرتَها، وساعة خَلَوتَ بها، كل هذا يشهد لك، كلّه ذاتَ يومٍ يَرفَعُك.”

“The black volhv pivoted to me. “I have questions.” “Can it wait?” “No. Your wedding is in two weeks. Have you prepared your guest list?” “Why do I need a list? I kind of figured that whoever wanted to show up would show up.” “You need a list so you know how many people you are feeding. Do you have a caterer?” “No.” “But you did order the cake?” “Umm…” “Florist?” “Florist?” “The person who delivers expensive flowers and sets them up in pretty arrangements everyone ignores?” “No.” Roman blinked. “I’m almost afraid to ask. Do you at least have the dress?” “Yes.” “Is it white?” “Yes.” He squinted at me. “Is it a wedding dress?” “It’s a white dress.” “Have you worn it before?” “Maybe.” Ascanio snickered.” “The ring, Kate?” Oh crap. Roman heaved a sigh. “What do you think this is, a party where you get to show up, say ‘I do,’ and go home?” “Yes?” That’s kind of how it went in my head.”

“Time to sit and contemplate life. As I sit and contemplate, I begin to realize how short our lives actually are. I need to do something... but when I'm involved with a project, I lose track of time. I turn around and years of my life are suddenly gone. If... I sit and do nothing... then... time seems to slow... to a crawl... but... I accomplish nothing. If I could manage to do something and nothing at the same time, it'll seem like life lasts forever. But I'm wasting time thinking about wasting time. Perhaps there's something on the tee-vee.”
