Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“The lion is most handsome when looking for food.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi

Michelle Zink
“Perhaps because it seems so appropriate, I don't notice the rain. It falls in sheets, a blanket of silvery thread rushing to the hard almost-winter ground. Still, I stand without moving at the side of the coffin.”
Michelle Zink, Prophecy of the Sisters

Will Durant
“Every form of government tends to perish by excess of its basic principle. Aristocracy ruins itself by limiting too narrowly the circle withing which power is confined; oligarchy ruins itself by the incautious for immediate wealth... But even democracy ruins itself by excess-of democracy. Its basic principle is the equal right of all to hold office and determine public policy. This is at first glance a delightful arrangement; it becomes disastrous because the people are not properly equipped by education to select the best rulers and the wisest courses... The upshot of such a democracy is tyranny or autocracy; the crowd so love flattery, it is so "hungry for honey," that at last the wiliest and most unscrupulous flatterer, calling himself the "protector of the people" rises to supreme power.”
Will Durant, The Story of Philosophy: The Lives and Opinions of the World's Greatest Philosophers

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Run from what's comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I'll be mad.”
Rumi

Roberto Bolaño
“We never stop reading, although every book comes to an end, just as we never stop living, although death is certain”
Roberto Bolaño, Last Evenings on Earth
