A time to kill المرافعة الاخيرة

Jake Tyler Brigance: [in his summation, talking about Tonya Hailey] "I want to tell you a story. I'm going to ask you all to close your eyes while I tell you the story. I want you to listen to me. I want you to listen to yourselves. Go ahead. Close your eyes, please. This is a story about a little girl walking home from the grocery store one sunny afternoon. I want you to picture this little girl. Suddenly a truck races up. Two men jump out and grab her. They drag her into a nearby field and they tie her up and they rip her clothes from her body.
Now they climb on. First one, then the other, raping her, shattering everything innocent and pure with a vicious thrust in a fog of drunken breath and sweat. And when they're done, after they've killed her tiny womb, murdered any chance for her to have children, to have life beyond her own, they decide to use her for target practice. They start throwing full beer cans at her. They throw them so hard that it tears the flesh all the way to her bones. Then they urinate on her. Now comes the hanging. They have a rope. They tie a noose. Imagine the noose going tight around her neck and with a sudden blinding jerk she's pulled into the air and her feet and legs go kicking. They don't find the ground. The hanging branch isn't strong enough. It snaps and she falls back to the earth. So they pick her up, throw her in the back of the truck and drive out to Foggy Creek Bridge. Pitch her over the edge. And she drops some thirty feet down to the creek bottom below. Can you see her? Her raped, beaten, broken body soaked in their urine, soaked in their semen, soaked in her blood, left to die. Can you see her? I want you to picture that little girl. Now imagine she's white."

مقايضة هاتف يدق بآخر يخفق ___ احلام مستغانمي

أُفكِّر في شركة “الموبايل”، التي طُرحت في الأسواق جهازاً مرصّعاً بالألماس بسعر 2400 دولار، “للفقـراء” المولعين بآخر صرعة “موبايل”. أمّا الأثرياء، ففي وسعهم اقتناء جهاز يزن 213 غراماً من البلاتين الصافي، وثمنه 27000 دولار فقط. وعلى الرغم من غلائه، فقد بيع منه عشرات النسخ عبر العالم.ـ

وفي ما يخص النقّال بالذات، في إمكاني، عن تجربة خاصة، أن أقول إنّ قلبي أُصيب بسكتة هاتفية، منذ تلقّيت منذ أشهر كهدية، هاتفاً نسائياً أنيقاً أحمر، مرصّعاً بمربّع من الأحجار نصف الكريمة، التي كانت معي ضنينة، إلى الحدِّ الذي بدأتُ أتطيَّر عاطفياً منه.ـ

فقد كنت أكثر سعادة بهاتفي البدائيّ البسيط، ذي المظهر المتقشّف، الذي بتوقفه توقفت ذبذبات صوت مَن أُحب.ـ

كيف لم أحتط من السعادة الباذخة، المفخّخة بالحزن، ومن مكر الأشياء، عندما تبدأ في التنكيل بأصحابها، عندما يقومون بتغيير دورها في الحياة، فيحوِّلون الحذاء إلى مصوغ تحرسه الكاميرات، وتنتعله وأنت متبوع، لا بحبيب، بل بـ”بودي غارد” يحرس خطاك، ويتحوّل الهاتف، من وسيلة اتصال إلى وسيلة تشاوف، تخرجه من حقيبتك، لا لتُحادث مَن تحبّ، بل لتشهر في وجه مَن هو أثرى منك.. إشاعة ثرائك؟

وقد حدث مراراً، أن حسدت نساء بسيطات المظهر، يتحدثن في الشارع بولعٍ على هاتف بسيط، مع حبيب في الطرف الآخر من الخط، فكدت أعرضُ عليهنّ جهازي النقّال الفاخر، واثقة بأنهن إنْ قبلن صفقتي، سيقمن باستثمارٍ عاطفيّ سيئ.ـ

مقتطف من مقال في زهرة الخليج



What My Heart Long For

I was crushed into pieces full of pain and anger.
I hated that love existed. I hated that i had loved anyone.
Time has passed my heart has been put back together.
As fragile as it feels..it still longs to be loved.
My heart yearns for a touch that will comfort my soul.
I see people falling in love..and i begin to feel lonely.
My heart wants someone to fall in love with.
My heart yearns to be guarded by hands who will never let go or hurt it.

I dream of falling in love..the sight of people holding hands ..pulls at my heart.
where is my prince? and the waiting begins..
waiting for someone to come set rescue me from this cold castle and set my heart free.

As we grow

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person who wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You will have your heart broken more than once, and it's harder everytime. You'll break hearts, too, so remember what it felt like when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for the things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and eventually, you'll lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt, because every sixty seconds you spend being upset is one minute that you'll never get back.

breathing

do you know that breathing is the most easiest job on earth? but it gets difficult whenever your staring at me like this. i always have to remind mysel how to breathe..

F O R E V E R

the worst pain you can ever live..is the pain of loving someone who doesnt love you back..someone who doesnt appreciate the fact that you love them like that...that you would give anything..do anything..to have them back..they dont undersatnd that they have your heart..and it takes nearly F O R E V E R to get that back..

Just realize.

" Everytime i look into your eyes, i fall in love over again. It just hurts to know that i love you, but you love her. "

 "always look happy when you tell about her, but deep inside i was crying in pain. how could I forget this feeling of mine?.....if you are always in my mind..... forbidden to remember terrified to forget ..............."

never Lie,Cheat, Steal, Drink

"Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink.
But if you must lie,
lie in the arms of the one you love.
If you must steal,
steal away from bad company.
If you must cheat,
cheat death.
And if you must drink,
drink in the moments that take your breath away"

Little Manhattan..

"Love isn't about ridiculous little words. Love is about grand gestures. Love is about airplanes pulling banners over stadiums, proposals on jumbo-trons, giant words in sky writing. Love is about going that extra mile even if it hurts, letting it all hang out there. Love is about finding courage inside of you that you didn't even know was there."

- Meet Joe Black

Love is passion, obsession, someone you can´t live without.If you don´t start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone you can love crazy and who´ll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart. I´m not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you´ll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love, well, you haven´t lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven´t try, you haven´t lived.

that's the thing

"You see sir, that's the thing. She's my other half. She's everything that I'm not. Without her I'm not whole. I used to walk around thinking I was happy, thinking I was whole... but now I can't go back to being just me, just half again, because now I know what it's like to be whole."

from Twilight

• "The way he stared at her, like a blind man seeing the light for the first time, like a mother looking into the eyes of her newborn baby, like an explorer discovering a new divinci."
  
• "His mouth was on mine then, and I couldn’t fight him. Not because he was so many thousand times stronger than me, but because my will crumbled into dust the second our lips met."
  
• "Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars—points of light and reason… And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn’t see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything"

Forget Paris

“When you love someone,
and you love them with all your heart
it never disappears when you're apart.
And when you love someone and you've done all you can do
you set them free,
and if that love was true..
when you love someone it will all come back to you.."



Walk to Remember

• 
  "Love is always patient and kind. It is neer jealous. Love is never boastful or conceted. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take pleasure in other peoples sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to eudure whatever comes." 
• "Love is like the wind you cant see it but you can feel it!"

A rule of love

When it comes to love, don't ever say you "MIGHT", because eventually you "WILL".

من يحبك

سألت حكيما كيف أعرف من يحبني ..
فقال: من يحمل همك . . ويسأل عنك . .
ولا يمل منك. . ويغفر زلتك . .
ويذكرك بربك. . هو مــن يحبك

غادة السمان

حبك يتكاثر
ويتناثر في داخلي
ويصدعني
...
ويتناسل
دونما مبالاة بشهادات
الميلاد الرسمية
وهكذا
حين اظنيْ رحلت إلى النوم
يظل جزء مني يتابع حياته
السرية
مسكوناً بك
ممعناً في حبك
ويوقظني عند الفجر
بضربة من فأس
الشوق
في منتصف رأسي
أهو صداع
أم تصدّع في روحي!!!!!

من كتابات غادة السمان

لم تترك لي الخيار ..كان علي أن أختار ..بين موتي معك ..وموتي بدونك .. فاخترت أن أرمي بزمننا على قارعة النسيان ..علني أنجو منك

غادة السمان_يوم افترقنا

ويوم افترقنا لم يكن هناك
منتصر او مهزوم
كلانا كان مهزوما
لان الحكاية انتهت
واليوم
كلانا مهزوم
لان الحكاية
بدأت تستعصى على الانتهاء

George Eliot

What greater thing is there for two human souls than to feel that they are joined together to strengthen each other in all labour, to minister to each other in all sorrow, to share with each other in all gladness, to be one with each other in the silent unspoken memories?
