    I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn
    “I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
    Marilyn Monroe

    Steve Jobs
    “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
    Steve Jobs

    “I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”

    Pablo Neruda
    “Sonnet XVII

    I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
    or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
    I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
    in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

    I love you as the plant that never blooms
    but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
    thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
    risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

    I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
    I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
    so I love you because I know no other way than this:

    where I does not exist, nor you,
    so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
    so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep. ”
    Pablo Neruda

    “But I love your feet
    only because they walked
    upon the earth and upon
    the wind and upon the waters,
    until they found me.”
    Pablo Neruda

    Pablo Neruda
    “I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.

    Write, for instance: "The night is full of stars,
    and the stars, blue, shiver in the distance."

    The night wind whirls in the sky and sings.

    I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.
    I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.

    On nights like this, I held her in my arms.
    I kissed her so many times under the infinite sky.

    She loved me, sometimes I loved her.
    How could I not have loved her large, still eyes?

    I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.
    To think I don't have her. To feel that I've lost her.

    To hear the immense night, more immense without her.
    And the poem falls to the soul as dew to grass.

    What does it matter that my love couldn't keep her.
    The night is full of stars and she is not with me.

    That's all. Far away, someone sings. Far away.
    My soul is lost without her.

    As if to bring her near, my eyes search for her.
    My heart searches for her and she is not with me.

    The same night that whitens the same trees.
    We, we who were, we are the same no longer.

    I no longer love her, true, but how much I loved her.
    My voice searched the wind to touch her ear.

    Someone else's. She will be someone else's. As she once
    belonged to my kisses.
    Her voice, her light body. Her infinite eyes.

    I no longer love her, true, but perhaps I love her.
    Love is so short and oblivion so long.

    Because on nights like this I held her in my arms,
    my soul is lost without her.

    Although this may be the last pain she causes me,
    and this may be the last poem I write for her.”
    Pablo Neruda

    “Then love knew it was called love.
    And when I lifted my eyes to your name,
    suddenly your heart showed me my way”

    Pablo Neruda
    “به آرامی آغاز به مردن می‌كنی
    اگر سفر نكنی
    اگر كتابی نخوانی
    اگر به اصوات زندگی گوش ندهی
    اگر از خودت قدردانی نكنی
    به آرامی آغاز به مردن می‌كنی
    زماني كه خودباوري را در خودت بكشی
    وقتي نگذاري ديگران به تو كمك كنند
    به آرامي آغاز به مردن می‌كنی
    اگر برده‏ی عادات خود شوی
    اگرهميشه از يك راه تكراری بروی
    اگر روزمرّگی را تغيير ندهی
    اگر رنگ‏های متفاوت به تن نكنی
    يا اگر با افراد ناشناس صحبت نكنی
    تو به آرامی آغاز به مردن می‌كنی
    اگر از شور و حرارت
    از احساسات سركش
    و از چيزهايی كه چشمانت را به درخشش وامی‌دارند
    و ضربان قلبت را تندتر مي‌كنند
    دوری كنی

    تو به آرامی آغاز به مردن می‌كنی
    اگر هنگامی كه با شغلت،‌ يا عشقت شاد نيستی، آن را عوض نكنی
    اگر برای مطمئن در نامطمئن خطر نكنی
    اگر ورای روياها نروی
    اگر به خودت اجازه ندهی
    كه حداقل يك بار در تمام زندگي‏ات
    ورای مصلحت‌انديشی بروی
    امروز زندگی را آغاز كن
    امروز مخاطره كن
    امروز كاری كن”
    پابلو نرودا
