“لقد خلق الله المعاناة لكي تظهر السعادة من خلال نقيضها. فالأشيلء تظهر من خلال أضدادها

.وبما أنه لا يوجد نقيض لله، فإنه يظل مخفيا.”
― Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love

“I have no philosophy, I have senses . . .
If I speak of Nature it’s not because I know what it is
But because I love it, and for that very reason,
Because those who love never know what they love
Or why they love, or what love is.
To love is eternal innocence,
And the only innocence is not to think . .”
― Fernando Pessoa, A Little Larger Than the Entire Universe: Selected Poems

“المرء لا يعرف أبدا ما الذي يمثله للآخرين، ولا بأية وسيلة مجانية ممكن أن يكسب أو يخسر عاطفة ما.”
― Juan José Millás, هكذا كانت الوحدة

“XIII
Lightly, lightly, very lightly
A very light wind passes,
And it goes away just as lightly,
And I don’t know what I’m thinking,
Nor do I wish to know.”
― Fernando Pessoa, A Little Larger Than the Entire Universe: Selected Poems
