Quotes by Arno Geiger  (?)
Quotes are added by the ŷ community and are not verified by ŷ.

“ولأن الإنسان منذ طفولته يرى والدَيْه في صورة الأقوياء القادرين على مواجهة مصاعب الحياة، فإن رؤية الضعف الذي يستنزفهما بالتدريج تكون أصعب من رؤية ذلك يحدث للآخرين”
Arno Geiger, Der alte König in seinem Exil

“أكبر هَمٍّ يمكن للكِبَرأن يصيبنا به هو أن يطول أمده أكثر مما نحتمل”
Arno Geiger, Der alte König in seinem Exil

“I now understand that there’s a difference between giving up because you don’t want to try and giving up because you know you’re beaten.”
Arno Geiger, The Old King in His Exile
