“لا تُعدّ المطالعة للأسف، عملاً شائعاً ويومياً، سوى بين قلّة من أهل العلم والتحصيل والأشخاص الّذين اشتغلوا بالكتاب بشكل اضطراري؛ في حين أنّه ينبغي للمطالعة أن تدخل حياة الناس كالأكل والنوم وسائر الأمور اليومية ص 52”
― السيد علي الخامنئي, من و کتاب

“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.”
― Rumi

“Sometimes I run fast when I feel like it, but if I increase the pace I shorten the amount of time I run, the point being to let the exhilaration I feel at the end of each run carry over to the next day. This is the same sort of tack I find necessary when writing a novel. I stop every day right at the point where I feel I can write more. Do that, and the next day's work goes surprisingly smoothly. I think Ernest Hemingway did something like that. To keep on going, you have to keep up the rhythm. This is the important thing for long-term projects. Once you set the pace, the rest will follow. The problem is getting the flywheel to spin at a set speed-and to get to that point takes as much concentration and effort as you can manage.”
― Haruki Murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running

“[I] read books because I love them, not because I think I should read them.”
