“One who knows and knows that he knows…
His horse of wisdom will reach the skies.
One who knows, but doesn’t know that he knows…
He is fast asleep, so you should wake him up!
One who doesn’t know, but knows that he doesn’t know…
His limping mule will eventually get him home.
One who doesn’t know and doesn’t know that he doesn’t know…
He will be eternally lost in his hopeless oblivion!”
― Ibn Yamin (Translated by Niayesh Afshordi)

“The first great thing is to find yourself and for that you need solitude and contemplation - at least sometimes. I can tell you deliverance will not come from the rushing noisy centers of civilization. It will come from the lonely places.”
― Fridtjof Nansen

“Remember that hope is a good thing, Red, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.”
― Stephen King, The Shawshank Redemption

“I once had a thousand desires. But in my one desire to know you all else melted away.”
