"عندما زار ابراهيم تلة شمع الأثرية حيث القلعة ومقام النبي شمعون شعر برهبة مضاعفة: “لم يبق شيء من معالم البلدة القديمة... لم يتبق سوى أكوام من الركام والحجارة”. ولكن ما لفته هو أن المقام بجزئه الأكبر لا يزال ينتصب هناك صامداً وشاهداً يتوسط الموت والدمار كيف لا وهو قلب شمع النابض بالحياة والخلود" #لبنان
