― Haruki Murakami, Men Without Women

“Çima rûyê xwe tirş bikim? Min ji xortanîya xwe tu xêr nedît ku ji pîrbûna xwe bitirsim. Min şêraniya dînê tam nekir ku talbûna axiretê madê min tirş bike.”
― Qedrî Can, Guneh

“Malxirabo!" gotiye Mele Emîn, "Tu hatî qet nebû bila destê te bimana di bin axa pîroz de. Belkî Xwedê te jî bidana xatirê wî."
"Tişt nabe" gotiye Hacî Nûrî, dema ku tûrikekî ji heqîba xwe derxistiye û daniye ser çonga xwe,
"Min tûrikekî axa pîroz jî dizî.”
― Mehmet Dicle, Asûs

“Mine is a most peaceable disposition. My wishes are: a humble cottage with a thatched roof, but a good bed, good food, the freshest milk and butter, flowers before my window, and a few fine trees before my door; and if God wants to make my happiness complete, he will grant me the joy of seeing some six or seven of my enemies hanging from those trees. Before death I shall, moved in my heart, forgive them all the wrong they did me in their lifetime. One must, it is true, forgive one's enemies-- but not before they have been hanged.”
― Heinrich Heine
