“
غذای روح بود باده رحیق الحق
که رنگ او کند از دور رنگ گل را دق
به رنگ زنگ زداید ز جان اندوهگین
همای گردد اگر جرعه‌ای بنوشد بق
به طعم، تلخ چوپند پدر و لیک مفید
به پیش مبطل، باطل به نزد دانا، حق
می‌از جهالت جهال شد به شرع حرام
چو مه که از سبب منکران دین شد شق
حلال گشته به فتوای عقل بر دانا
حرام گشته به احکام شرع بر احمق
شراب را چه گنه زان که ابلهی نوشد
زبان به هرزه گشاید، دهد ز دست ورق
حلال بر عقلا و حرام بر جهال
که می‌محک بود وخیرو شر از او مشتق
غلام آن می‌صافم کزو رخ خوبان
به یک دو جرعه برآرد هزار گونه عرق
چو بوعلی می‌ناب ار خوری حکیمان
به حق حق که وجودت شود به حق ملحق
”
― Ibn Sina (Avicenna)

“You know the reason The Beatles made it so big?...'I Wanna Hold Your Hand.' First single. Fucking brilliant. Perhaps the most fucking brilliant song ever written. Because they nailed it. That's what everyone wants. Not 24/7 hot wet sex. Not a marriage that lasts a hundred years. Not a Porsche...or a million-dollar crib. No. They wanna hold your hand. They have such a feeling that they can't hide. Every single successful song of the past fifty years can be traced back to 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand.' And every single successful love story has those unbearable and unbearably exciting moments of hand-holding.”
― David Levithan, Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist

“It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it; and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one.”
― George Harrison

“If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.”
