... the pursuit of origins is a way of rescuing territory from death and oblivion, a reconquest that ought to be patient, devoted, relentless and faithful.

The past is bound to be fragmentary, bound to be reconstructed, bound to be reinvented. It serves only to collect the truths of today. If our present is the child of the past, our past is the child of the present. And the future will be the harvester of our bastard offspring.

لا تستحق التقاليد أن تُحترم إلا بقدر ماهي جديرة بالإحترام
Amin MaaloufIt seems clear that the Arab East still sees the West as a natural enemy. Against that enemy, any hostile action-be it political, military, or based on oil-is considered no more than legitimate vengeance. And there can be no doubt that the schism between these two worlds dates from the Crusades, deeply felt by the Arabs, even today, as an act of rape
Amin MaaloufNikad ne molim Boga da me poštedi nevolja, već samo da me poštedi očaja. Ne gubi povjerenje: kada te Svevišnji ispusti iz jedne ruke, uhvati te drugom.

When faced with a chaotic and convoluted situation, one always thinks that it will take centuries to sort it out. Suddenly a man appears and as if by magic, the tree we thought was doomed takes on new life and starts bearing leaves and fruits and giving shade." (Shireen in Samarkand)

Yaraların hissedilmesi için tanımlanmaya ihtiyaçları yoktur.
Amin MaaloufFew doctrines throughout History have been able to eradicate hatred, most of them have simply tried to deflect it from one object to another: to the infidel, the foreigner, the apostate, the master, the slave, the father. Naturally, hatred is only called hatred when we see it in others; the hatred which is in ourselves bears a thousand different names.
Amin Maaloufتذكر الاهرام كم من رجال ماتوا في سبيل بنائها وكان بوسعهم العيش سنين أطول يفلحون الأرض ويأكلون وينجبون الاولاد وربما ماتوا بعدئذ بالطاعون ولم يتركوا اثرا. ولقد بنوا وفقا لرغبة فرعون نصبا سوف يخلد
طيفه الى الابد ذكرى عملهم وألامهم وأشرف تطلعاتهم . ولم يفعل طومان باي غير ذلك . الا تساوي اربعة ايام من البسالة والكرامة والتحدي اكثر من أربعة قرون من اخضوع والاستسلام والدناءة؟ لقد قدم طومان باي للقاهرة وشعبها أجمل هدية ممكنة : نار مقدسة سوف تنير الليل الطويل الذي بدأ وتدفئه
