بالمناسبة، الانياذة هي ملحمة تحجي عن أُصول الرومان. بس هواي من عناصرها (والبطل مالتها حتى) مقتبسة بشكل صريح من الإلياذة، اللي هي ملحمة يونانية مالها علاقة بالرومان.

هالكلام يذكرني بجماعة جلد الذات اللي ينكرون وجود عصر ذهبي إسلامي وثقافة عربية إسلامية بسبب أنّ "إبن سينا كان فارسي، والأرقام العربية أصلها هندي... الخ" العصر الذهبي اللي عاشه الشرق الأوسط بالقرون الوسطى كان عصر عربي لأن روحه ومبادئه ولغته ونظامه الفكري والديني…

We are a humble letter, a single syllable, one word out of a gigantic Odyssey. We are immersed in an enormous song and we shine like humble pebbles as long as they remain immersed in the sea.
What is our duty? To raise our heads from the text a moment, as long as our lungs can bear it, and to breathe in the transoceanic song.
To bring together all our adventures, to give meaning to our voyage, to battle undauntedly with men, with gods, with animals, and then slowly, patiently, to erect in our brains, marrow of our marrow, our Ithaca.
Out of an ocean of nothingness, with fearful struggle, the work of man rises slowly like a small island.
Within this arena, which grows more stable night after day, generations work and love and hope and vanish. New generations tread on the corpses of their fathers, continue the work above the abyss and struggle to tame the dread mystery. How? By cultivating a single field, by kissing a woman, by studying a stone, an animal, an idea.

Earthquakes come, the island sways, a corner crumbles away, another rises out of the sunless waves.
The mind is a seafaring laborer whose work is to build a seawall in chaos.

وَمُدمِنُ الخَمرِ يَصحو بَعدَ سَكرَتِهِ
وَصاحِبُ الحُبِّ يَلقى الدَهرَ سَكرانا
وَقَد سَكِرتُ بِلا خَمرٍ يُخامِرُني
لَمّا ذَكَرتُ وَما أَنساهُ إِنسانا
