Sabahattin Ali
“I definitely need to love a man. But a real man. A man who could sweep me off my feet without resorting to brute strength. Without asking anything of me, without controlling me, or degrading me, a man who could love me and walk by my side. In other words, a truly powerful man, a real man.”
Sabahattin Ali, Kürk Mantolu Madonna

Clarice Lispector
“What am I in this instant? I’m a typewriter making the dry echo in the dark, humid dawn. I haven’t been human for a long time. They wanted me to be an object. I am an object. An object dirty with blood. An object that creates other objects and the machine creates us all. It makes demands. Mechanisms make endless demands on my life. But I don’t totally obey: if I have to be an object, let me be an object that screams. There’s something inside of me that hurts. Oh, how it hurts and how it screams for help. But tears aren’t there in the machine that is me. I’m an object without a destiny. I’m an object in whose hands? such is my human destiny. What saves me is the scream. I protest in the name of what’s inside the object behind the behind of the thought-feeling. I’m an urgent object.”
Clarice Lispector, The Stream of Life

“Niçin rüzgarlı sonbahar akşamlarında, sessizce yan yana yürüyerek ruhlarımızın konuştuğunu dinleyemiyoruz?”
Sabahattin Ali, Kürk Mantolu Madonna

Clarice Lispector
“It's with such profound happiness. Such a hallelujah. Hallelujah, I shout, hallelujah merging with the darkest human howl of the pain of separation but a shout of diabolic joy. Because no one can hold me back now. I can still reason - I studied mathematics, which is the madness of reason - but now I want the plasma - I want to eat straight from the placenta. I am a little scared: scared of surrendering completely because the next instant is unknown. The next instant, do I make it? or does it make itself? We make it together with our breath. And with the flair of the bullfighter in the ring.”
Clarice Lispector, The Stream of Life

“Hiçbir şey beni, hakkımdaki bir kanaati düzeltmek kadar korkutmazdı.”
Sabahattin Ali, Kürk Mantolu Madonna
