Ivan Turgenev
“Nothing is worse and more hurtful than a happiness that comes too late. It can give no pleasure, yet it deprives you of that most precious of rights - the right to swear and curse at your fate!”
Ivan S. Turgenev, Rudin

Vladimir Nabokov
“You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style.”
Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about.”
Rumi

Oscar Wilde
“I don't want to go to heaven. None of my friends are there.”
Oscar Wilde

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.”
Rumi
