“If you marry, you will regret it; if you do not marry, you will also regret it; if you marry or do not marry, you will regret both; Laugh at the world’s follies, you will regret it, weep over them, you will also regret that; laugh at the world’s follies or weep over them, you will regret both; whether you laugh at the world’s follies or weep over them, you will regret both. Believe a woman, you will regret it, believe her not, you will also regret that; believe a woman or believe her not, you will regret both; whether you believe a woman or believe her not, you will regret both. Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will also regret that; hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both. This, gentlemen, is the sum and substance of all philosophy.”
― Søren Kierkegaard, Either/Or: A Fragment of Life

“والدين في الناس حقلٌ ليس يزرعهُ .. غير الأولى لهم في زرعهِ وطرُ
مِن آملٍ بنعيم الخلدِ مبتشرٍ.. ومِن جهول يخافُ النار تستعرُ
فالقومُ لولا عقاب البعثِ ما عبدوا رباً .. ولولا الثوابُ المرتجى كفروا
كأنما الدينُ ضربٌ من متاجرهمْ .. إن واظبوا ربحوا أو أهملوا خسروا”
― Kahlil Gibran, المواكب

“What Do sad people have in Common? It seems They have all built a shrine To the past And often go there And do a strange wail and Worship. What is the beginning of Happiness? It is to stop being So religious Like That.”
― Hafez
