Quote by Khaled Ibrahim

“You never really understood me. You always doubted my intentions and belittled my efforts. With every step I took toward you, you stepped further away. I just wanted unity... while you longed for war. I was building a home... while you were tearing it down. Trust was never there… and maybe, neither were you.”

“The Babar the Elephant book is sitting in front of me. I pick it up and start reading it. I remember reading it as a small Boy and enjoying it and imagining that I was friends with Babar, his constant Companion during all of his adventures. He went to the moon, I went with him. He fought Tomb Raiders in Egypt, I fought alongside him. He rescued his elephant girlfriend from Ivory Hunters on the Savanna, I coordinated the getaway. I loved that goddamn Elephant and I loved being his friend. In a childhood full of unhappiness and rage, Babar is one of the few pleasant memories that I have. Me and Babar, kicking some motherfucking ass.”

“...بوسعك دائمًا أن تضحي بما أحببت ،حينما تغدو الملاجئ ساحات حرب ،وحين يغلب ظلها نورك .وحين يصبح التمسك بها موتًا بطيئًا لروحك You can always sacrifice things you loved… when they become battlefields instead of shelters, when their shadows eclipse your lights, when holding on means watching yourself wither.”

“Consider a small child sitting on his mother's lap while she reads him a picture book. The picture book opens to a width that effectively places the child at the center of a closed circle - that of mother's body, arms, and the picture book... That circle, so private and intimate, is a place apart form the demands and stresses of daily life, a sanctuary in and from which the child can explore the many worlds offered in picture books. Despite all of our society's technological advances, it still just takes one child, one book, and one reader, to create this unique space, to work this everyday magic.”

“A woman at one of mother's parties once said to me, "Do you like reading?" which smote us all to silence, for how could one tell her that books are like having a bath or sleeping, or eating bread - absolute necessities which one never thinks of in terms of appreciation. And we all sat waiting for her to say that she had so little time for reading, before ruling her right out for ever and ever.”
