    “How about a favor?” I asked impulsively –foolishly.

    “I do not like the terms. I don’t get any offspring, any beloved, I cannot ask something that is not in your power and I do not get to have your soul?” Her lips twisted in a sarcastic smile, and I could tell I had managed to insult her. “Although I suppose that’s some other entity’s priority and not mine. But that aside, what’s left for me?”
    Jina S. Bazzar, Heir of Ashes

    assumptions, but no proof;
    information, but no reason;
    arguments, but no evidence;
    beliefs, but no wisdom;
    counsel, but no guidance;
    pleasures, but no peace;
    luxuries, but no comfort;

    Hallie Rubenhold
    “Just as it did in the nineteenth century, the notion that the victims were 'only prostitutes' seeks to perpetuate the belief that there are good women and bad women; madonnas and whores. It suggests that there is an acceptable standard of female behaviour and those that deviate from it are fit to be punished. Equally, it assists in reasserting the double standard , exonerating men from wrongs committed against such women. These attitudes may not feel as prevalent as they were in 1888, but they persist - not proffered in general conversation... but, rather integrated subtly into the fabric of our social norms.”

    Charles Bukowski
    “اغلب تنها نوشتن فاصله بین
    تو و ناممکن است

    نه مشروب
    نه عشق زنان
    نه پول
    همتایش نیستند
    جز نوشتن چیزی نجاتت نمی‌دهد

    دیوارها را در برابر هجوم مغولان استوار نگه می‌دارد
    تاریکی را نورانی می‌کند
    نوشتن آخرین روان‌پزشک است
    مهربان‌ترین خدا بین تمام خدایان است

    نوشتن مرگ را می‌تاراند، ترکت نمی‌کند
    و نوشتن می‌خندد
    بر خودش
    بر رنج
    آخرین توقع است
    آخرین تفسیر
    نوشتن تمام این‌هاست”
    Charles Bukowski

    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
