“Και σέρνομαι στο παράθυρο και βλέπω τη νύχτα βουβή ν'απλώνεται και να με περικυκλώνει. Τα δένδρα κοιμούνται. Αποπάνω το φεγγάρι αγρυπνεί. Ακούω την ελαφράν αναπνοή στον ύπνο των που κάνουν τα ρόδα. Σκύβω το κεφάλι μου αγκαλιασμένο από τη νύχτα κι ακούω τη σιωπή και συλλογούμαι. Τ'είναι λοιπόν εκείνο που ζητώ;”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, Serpent and Lily: A Novella with a Manifesto: The Sickness of the Age

“Because, instead of bitterness, you feel enthusiasm. That is the only difference. Apart from that, one must respect the Mystery, and humbly accept that God has a plan for us. A generous plan, which leads us towards His presence, and which justifies these millions of stars, planets, black holes, etc. which we see tonight,”
― Paulo Coelho, Warrior of the Light
