“There are moths outside, ready to die for a light they crave but which is denied to them, shielded from them [...] Sometimes, in the midst of all I have been given, I watch the moths in us all. Everybody has a light which they think they cannot live without.”

“من خائن به وطن هستم، من خائن به میهن هستم
اگر وطن، مزارع شما باشد
اگر وطن آن چیزی باشد که در گاوصندوق‌ها و دسته چک‌های شماست
اگر وطن مردن از گرسنگی در کنار جاده باشد
اگر وطن در زمستان مثل سگ لرزیدن و در تابستان از تب به خود پیچیدن باشد
اگر وطن مکیدن خون سرخ ما در کارخانه‌هایتان باشد
اگر وطن حکومت چماق و باتون پلیس باشد
اگر وطن سرمایه‌گذاری‌ها و حقوق‌هایتان باشد
اگر وطن، نجات نیافتن ازظلمت گندیده‌ی شما باشد
آری، من خائن به وطن هستم”
― Nâzım Hikmet Ran, Poems of Nazım Hikmet
