Melis

“How dost thou know that some entire, living, thinking thing may not be invisibly and uninterpenetratingly standing precisely where thou now standest; aye, and standing there in thy spite? In thy most solitary hours, then, dost thou not fear eavesdroppers? Hold, don’t speak! And if I still feel the smart of my crushed leg, though it be now so long dissolved; then, why mayst not thou, carpenter, feel the fiery pains of hell for ever, and without a body? Hah!”
― Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

“eğer geçmiş daha önce onun üzerine bir öykü yansıtmasaydı,
şimdiki an geleceklerle dopdolu olacaktı”
― Sami Baydar, Dünya İnancı

“La mélancolie est une maladie qui consiste à voir les choses comme elles sont.”
― Gérard de Nerval
