I was never very good with either my hands or feet. It always seemed to me they'd just been stuck on as an afterthought during my making.

حينما تترقب خلف ستار الخوف عودتهم ! وحينما تعتقد بأن أعاصير الحياة عصفت بهم كما عصفت بك عند رحيلهم .. وحينما تعتقد بأنهم مازالوا هناك على رصيف الذكرى يقفون ، ينتظرون طيف أقدامك ! يترقبون مجيئك ويعتصرون ألماً على فراقك ..! كما تفعل أنت الآن ، وكما فعلت منذ زمن عندها تكون ياعزيزي أقرب إلى الجنون ↗
