Patrick Rothfuss
“Words have to find a man's mind before they can touch his heart, and some men's minds are woefully small targets.”
Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind

Albert Camus
“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.

And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.”
Albert Camus

Patrick Rothfuss
“You lack the requisite spine and testicular fortitude to study under me.”
Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind

Faiz Ahmad Faiz
“Before you came,
things were as they should be:
the sky was the dead-end of sight,
the road was just a road, wine merely wine.

Now everything is like my heart,
a color at the edge of blood:
the grey of your absence, the color of poison, of thorns,
the gold when we meet, the season ablaze,
the yellow of autumn, the red of flowers, of flames,
and the black when you cover the earth
with the coal of dead fires.

And the sky, the road, the glass of wine?
The sky is a shirt wet with tears,
the road a vein about to break,
and the glass of wine a mirror in which
the sky, the road, the world keep changing.

Don’t leave now that you’re here—
Stay. So the world may become like itself again:
so the sky may be the sky,
the road a road,
and the glass of wine not a mirror, just a glass of wine.”
Faiz Ahmad Faiz, 100 Poems by Faiz Ahmed Fiza

Faiz Ahmad Faiz
“The first rule of translation: make sure you know at least one of the bloody languages!”
Faiz Ahmed Faiz
