    “باید یکبار به خاطر همه چیز گریه کرد.آن قدر که اشک ها خشک شوند، باید این تن اندوهگین را چلاند و بعد دفتر زندگی را ورق زد.به چیز دیگری فکر کرد.باید پاها را حرکت داد و همه چیز را از نو شروع کرد.
    "من او را دوست داشتم”

    Charles Bukowski
    “For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.”

    “درد یک پنجره را پنجره ها می فهمند

    معنی کور شدن را گره ها می فهمند
    سخت بالا بروی ، ساده بیایی پایین
    قصه تلخ مرا سُرسُره ها می فهمند
    یک نگاهت به من آموخت که در حرف زدن
    چشم ها بیشتر از حنجره ها می فهمند
    آنچه از رفتنت آمد به سرم را فردا
    مردم از خواندن این تذکره ها می فهمند
    نه نفهمید کسی منزلت شمس مرا
    قرن ها بعد در آن کنگره ها می فهمند”
    ― کاظم بهمنی

    “When we meet someone and fall in love, we have a sense that the whole universe is on our side. And yet if something goes wrong, there is nothing left! How is it possible for the beauty that was there only minutes before to vanish so quickly? Life moves very fast. It rushes from heaven to hell in a matter of seconds.”

    J.D. Salinger

    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
