“Every true love and friendship is a story of unexpected transformation. If we are the same person before and after we loved, that means we haven't loved enough.”
― Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love

“Bountiful is your life, full and complete. Or so you think, until someone comes along and makes you realize what you have been missing all this time. Like a mirror that reflects what is absent rather than present, he shows you the void in your soul—the void you have resisted seeing. That person can be a lover, a friend, or a spiritual master. Sometimes it can be a child to look after. What matters is to find the soul that will complete
yours. All the prophets have given the same advice: Find the one who will be your mirror!".”
― Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love

“While the parts change, the whole always remains the same. For every thief who departs this world, a new one is born. And every decent person who passes away is replaced by a new one. In this way not only does nothing remain the same but also nothing ever really changes.”

“Постарай се да не се съпротивляваш на промените, които изникват по пътя ти. Вместо това остави живота да живее чрез теб. И не се плаши, че животът ти се преобръща с главата надолу. Откъде знаеш, че онова, с което си свикнал, е по-добре от нещата, които ще дойдат?”
― Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love

“- Правило номер четирийсет - каза бавно Ела. - Живот без любов не е живот. Не се питай към каква любов да се стремиш, духовна или материална, божествена или земна, източна или западна.
Започнеш ли да делиш нещата, възниква ново и ново делене. Любовта няма етикети, няма определения. Тя просто е това, което е.

Любовта е жива вода. А влюбеният е душа от огън!

Светът се върти по друг начин, когато огънят обикне водата.”
― Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love

“Не се плаши къде ще те отведе пътят. Вместо това се съсредоточи върху първата стъпка. Това е най-трудната част и именно за нея носиш отговорност. Веднъж направиш ли първата стъпка, нека всичко следва естествения си ход, а останалото ще се нареди само. Не се носи по течението. Самият ти бъди течение.”
― Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love
