“Και πρέπει ένα πράγμα να αναγνωρίσει κανείς στη ματαιοδοξία: βρίσκει πάντα ευφάνταστους τρόπους να σε κάνει να μετανιώσεις που την εμπιστεύτηκες.”
― Alessandro Piperno, Inseparabili

“How many stories are there that have been lived, but will never be told? Far too many for me to squander the one that I’m living.”

“ancient civilisations resonate down through the ages in Iran. Some of history's biggest names–Cyrus and Darius, Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan–all left their mark here, and the cities they conquered or ruled are among the finest in a region rich with such storied ruins. Walking around the awesome and beautiful ancient capital at Persepolis, experiencing the remote power of Susa (Shush), and taking in the wonderfully immense Elamite ziggurat at Choqa Zanbil will carry you all the way back to the glory days of Ancient Persia.”

“But I tell you, a cat needs a name that’s particular, A name that’s peculiar, and more dignified, Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular, Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride? Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum, Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat, Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellylorum — Names that never belong to more than one cat.”
― T.S. Eliot, The Complete Poems and Plays
