“And now listen carefully. You in others-this is your soul. This is what you are. This is what your consciousness has breathed and lived on and enjoyed throughout your life-your soul, your immortality, your life in others. And what now? You have always been in others and you will remain in others. And what does it matter to you if later on that is called your memory? This will be you-the you that enters the future and becomes a part of it.”
― Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago

“Reshaping life! People who can say that have never understood a thing about life—they have never felt its breath, its heartbeat—however much they have seen or done. They look on it as a lump of raw material that needs to be processed by them, to be ennobled by their touch. But life is never a material, a substance to be molded. If you want to know, life is the principle of self-renewal, it is constantly renewing and remaking and changing and transfiguring itself, it is infinitely beyond your or my obtuse theories about it.”
― Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago

“ إني أعتبر التغلغل إلى اعماق مشاعرك وأحاسيسك تطفلاً لايحق لأحد أن يجنح إليه ، حتى ولو كان زوجك ..
بل إني على يقين من أن لمثل هذه الخطوة عواقب وخيمة ، لأن المرء إذا حاول استكشاف الروح رأي في الغالب مايبطنه ويخيب أمله ..
فشعورك ملك لك ، شعورك موكول إلى ضميرك ، ’’

‘‘ كنت أظن أني انتهيت ، ولكني حييت ، وسوف أحيا وأقوى ، ولن تنال مني خيبتي ماعجزت عن نيله آلامي البائدة ’’

‘‘ وحدتي قاسية ، قاسية لاتجاريها في وحدتها ملالة امرأة ”

“To be a woman is a great adventure;
To drive men mad is a heroic thing.”
