Quote by Mahsati Abdul

“Someone said: "“Tell me what you read and I'll tell you who you are" or "tell me who is your friend and I'll tell you who you are" ...etc.. My life experience oppose the above mentioned sayings. I would say, "Tell me how do you respond to gossip and I will tell you who you are" "Tell me how do you solve your problems and I'll tell you who you are”

“Frank, I ran into Gladys and Billy at the store yesterday. Do you know what he said to me?" The girls went very quiet. Frank didn't look up. "Hello?" he asked, and kept rubbing Henry's knife.

“Astronomy is, not without reason, regarded, by mankind, as the sublimest of the natural sciences. Its objects so frequently visible, and therefore familiar, being always remote and inaccessible, do not lose their dignity.”

“المرأة (المفكرة) ليست بالضرورة بشعة، ولا عجوزًا، ولا عانسًا، ولا يائسة. إنها أنثى أخرى مثلي ومثلكِ، تحب الحياة كما نحبها، لكنها أكثر وعيًا في هذا الحب، لذا فإن سلوكها يتخذّ صورة الدفاع عن أهم ما في الحياة: الكرامة.”

“You will die, and when you die, you will know a profound lack of it [dignity]. It's never dignified, always brutal. What's dignified about dying? It's never dignified. And in obscurity? Offensive. Dignity is an affectation, cute but eccentric, like learning French or collecting scarves. And it's fleeting and incredibly mercurial. And subjective. So fuck it.”

“There was hardly a touch of earth in her love for Clare. To her sublime trustfulness he was all that goodness could be—knew all that a guide, philosopher, and friend should know. She thought every line in the contour of his person the perfection of masculine beauty, his soul the soul of a saint, his intellect that of a seer. The wisdom of her love for him, as love, sustained her dignity; she seemed to be wearing a crown. The compassion of his love for her, as she saw it, made her lift up her heart to him in devotion. He would sometimes catch her large, worshipful eyes, that had no bottom to them looking at him from their depths, as if she saw something immortal before her.”
