Richard Bach
“Don't be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.”
Richard Bach, Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah

Gabriel García Márquez
“Žiemos vakarais, kol židinyje kaisdavo sriubos katilėlis, seniokas ilgėdavosi savo karšto galinio kambarėlio knygyne, saulės siaudimo dulkinoje migdolų medžių lajoje, garvežio švilpimo, drumsčiančio mieguistą siestą, - kaip Makonde ilgėdavosi žiemos židinyje kaistančios sriubos, kavos pupelių pardavėjo šauksmų gatvėje ir pavasarį pralekiančių vieversių. Draskomas šių dviejų nostalgijų, kurios atspindėdavo viena kitą kaip du priešais sustatyti veidrodžiai, galiausiai jis patarė savo draugams apleisti Makondą, užmiršti, ką juos buvo mokinęs apie pasaulį ir žmogaus širdį, spjauti į Horacijų ir, kad ir kur jie būtų, visada prisiminti, jog praeitis – melas, jog atminčiai nėra kelio atgal, jog kiekvienas prabėgęs pavasaris nesugrįžta ir jog pati beprotiškiausia ir tvirčiausia meilė tveria tik akimirką.”
Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude

Richard Bach
“What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.”
Richard Bach, Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah

Richard Bach
“The world is a dream, you say, and it’s lovely, sometimes. Sunset. Clouds. Sky.”

“No. The image is a dream. The beauty is real. Can you see the difference?”
Richard Bach, Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah

Alan W. Watts
“In attachment there is pain, and in pain deliverance, so that at this point attachment itself offers no obstacle, and the liberated one is at last free to love with all his might and to suffer with all his heart. This is not because he has learned the trick of splitting himself into higher and lower selves so that he can watch himself with inward indifference, but rather because he has found the meeting-point of the limit of wisdom and the limit of foolishness. The Bodhisattva is the fool who has become wise by persisting in his folly.”
Alan W. Watts, Nature, Man and Woman
