Quote by مصطفى محمود

“الصديقان النموذجيان هما كزوج من القنافذ.. يتعاطفان ويتعاونان ويتلازمان ويتقاربان .. ولكن لا يذوبان في بعضهما لأن كل واحد له درقة من الأشواك تحميه من أن يقتحم عليه الآخر خصوصيته وسريته وينتهك وحدانية نفسه وقدسية استقلاله .”

“The heart of a man is a small thing but it desires great matters. It is not big enough for a dog’s dinner but the whole world is not big enough for it. Man spares nothing that lives; he kills to feed himself, he kills to clothe himself, he kills to adorn himself, he kills to attack, he kills to defend himself, he kills to instruct himself, he kills to amuse himself, he kills for the sake of killing. From the lamb he tears its guts and makes his harp resound; from the wolf his most deadly tooth to polish his pretty works of art; from the elephant his tusks to make a toy for his child.(...)And who will exterminate him who exterminates all others?”

How defective in reason, how mean his facilities, how ugly in form and movement, in action how like a devil, in apprehension how like a cow. The beauty of the world? The paragon of animals? To me the quintessence of dust.”

“إن ضغط الدم .. والقلق .. والأرق .. الذي يصيبني من الحقائق أفضل من الخنوثة والتراخي والفتور الذي يصيبني من التطان والتفاؤل . أنه تطامن يربي الشحم على قلبي وشعوري .. ويميتني بالسكتة لأقل خيبة أمل .. ولأتفه خبر غير متوقع .. وكل الأخبار في هذه الحالة غير متوقعة .”

“He has reverted, in other words, back into a pure balls-to-the-wall nerdism rivaled only by his early game-coding days back in Seattle. The sheer depth and involution of the current nerdism binge would be hard to convey to anyone. Intellectually, he is juggling half a dozen lit torches, Ming vases, live puppies, and running chainsaws. In this frame of mind he cannot bring himself to give a shit about the fact that this incredibly powerful billionaire has gone to a lot of trouble to come and F2F with him.”
