: إن البحر كان دائماً مصدر إلهامي، حتى إن معظم أعمالي مبللة بمياه موجه الصاخب، وأسأل: هل قصدت ذلك متعمّدا؟ في الجواب أقول:في البدء لم أقصد شيئاً، لحمي سمك البحر، دمي ماؤه المالح، صراعي مع القروش كان صراع حياة،أما العواصف فقد نُقشت وشماً على جلدي، إذا نادوا: يا بحر أجبت أنا! البحر أنا، فيه وُلدت، وفيه أرغب أن أموت..

@DJ
Sure the corniche has been entirely renovated. The concept is nice. There's still this lingering unfinished job sense so common in the work of the public sector.
They only know how to work with concrete. Once the job requires the finer touches they get lost.

The pictures are beautiful.

@KJ
Life should be simple despite of our perspective.
Unfortunately it is not. It starts simple and ends simple but in the middle of it all it's just filled with crap.

@Sean
Every time I wear the Arsenal jersey you've sent me I think of you of course. I was so happy with the Gunners win over ManUtd although I had to follow it on the LiveText of BBC website.

@Om Anastasio
You're so welcome.
Being Greek by association as you've put it and half English, half Scottish by ancestry makes for a very interesting combination.
