Pablo Neruda
“همیشه چیزهایی که نداشته‌ام را
،بسیار دوست داشته‌ام
همچون تو
که بسیار دوری
...که بسیار ندارمت”
Pablo Neruda

Peg Brantley
“hand. Mex turned and walked toward his study, leaving the door open. Vicente Vega followed. If Vega looked around at his home, Mex didn’t know. He didn’t care.”
Peg Brantley, The Sacrifice

Jordan B. Peterson
“Rejection of the unknown is tantamount to “identification with the devil,” the mythological counterpart and eternal adversary of the world-creating exploratory hero. Such rejection and identification is a consequence of Luciferian pride, which states: all that I know is all that is necessary to know. This pride is totalitarian assumption of omniscience – is adoption of “God’s place” by “reason” – is something that inevitably generates a state of personal and social being indistinguishable from hell. This hell develops because creative exploration – impossible, without (humble) acknowledgment of the unknown – constitutes the process that constructs and maintains the protective adaptive structure that gives life much of its acceptable meaning”
Jordan B. Peterson, Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief

Minka Kent
“We’re not meant to be best friends with every person who crosses our paths. Not everyone has our best interests at heart.”
Minka Kent, The Thinnest Air
