Isn't it a characteristic of the age we live in that it has made everyone in a way a migrant and a member of a minority?
Amin MaaloufLife is like a fire. Flames which the passer-by forgets. Ashes which the wind scatters. A man lived.
Amin MaaloufI am the son of the road , my country is a caravan and my life is the most unexpected of voyages. i belong to earth and to the god and it is to them that I will one day soon return
Amin Maalouflet us thank God for having made us this gift of death, so that life is to have meaning; of night, that day is to have meaning; silence, that speech is to have meaning; illness, that health is to have meaning; war, that peace is to have meaning. Let us give thanks to Him for having given us weariness and pain, so that rest and joy are to have meaning. Let us give thanks to him, whose wisdom is infinite.
Amin Maalouf
