Virginia Woolf
“Women have served all these centuries as looking glasses possessing the magic and delicious power of reflecting the figure of man at twice its natural size.”
Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own

Alija Izetbegović
“فلكي ندرك حقيقة وضعنا في هذا العالم يعني أن نستسلم لله، وأن نتنفس السلام، وألا يحملنا الوهم على أن نبدد جهودنا في الإحاطة بكل شيء والتغلب عليه. علينا أن نتقبل المكان والزمان اللذين أحاطا بميلادنا، فالزمان والمكان قدرُ الله وإرادته. إن التسليم لله هو الطريقة الإنسانية الوحيدة للخروج من ظروف الحياة المأساوية التي لا حل لها ولا معنى.. إنه طريق للخروج بدون تمرد ولا قنوط ولا عدمية ولا انتحار. إنه شعور بطولي (لا شعور بطل)، بل شعور إنسان عادي قام بأداء واجبه وتقبل قَدَره.”
علي عزت بيجوفيتش, الإسلام بين الشرق والغرب

Albert Camus
“Thus I progressed on the surface of life, in the realm of words as it were, never in reality. All those books barely read, those friends barely loved, those cities barely visited, those women barely possessed! I went through the gestures out of boredom or absent-mindedness. Then came human beings; they wanted to cling, but there was nothing to cling to, and that was unfortunate--for them. As for me, I forgot. I never remembered anything but myself.”
Albert Camus, The Fall

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“I am proud of my heart alone, it is the sole source of everything, all our strength, happiness and misery. All the knowledge I possess everyone else can acquire, but my heart is all my own”
Goethe Wolfgang, The Sorrows of Young Werther

Virginia Woolf
“I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman.”
Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own
