"“that is the secret of happiness
and virtue-liking what you’ve got to do. All conditioning aims at that: making
people like their unescapable social destiny.”" — Jan 29, 2016 12:45AM

“There is but one truly serious philosophical problem and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy. All the rest — whether or not the world has three dimensions, whether the mind has nine or twelve categories — comes afterwards. These are games; one must first answer.”

“..َصدق من قال بِحُبِك
..وكذب من قال بحب سواك
وكذبت روحه يوم القيامة..
وندمت يداه وقدماه، فما زرع إلا الهواء..وما حصد إلا الهواء.. وما تنور إلا بالظلمة.. وما تبرد إلا بالنار.”
― عصر القرود

“The most important things are the hardest to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them -- words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that, isn't it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That's the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for want of an understanding ear.”
