“man does not stand forever, his nullification.
they all seek their own existence and to assure their existence against that complete atomization into nothingness or into meaninglessness. Man cannot stand a meaningless life.”

“No one, not even a ‘friend,’ can make us better. But it is a great happiness in life to meet a person of quite different construction, different bent, completely dissimilar views who, while always remaining himself and in no wise echoing us nor currying favor with us (as sometimes happens) and not trying to insinuate his soul (and an insincere soul at that!) into our psyche, into our muddle, into our tangle, would stand as a firm wall, as a check to our follies and our irrationalities, which every human being has. Friendship lies in contradiction and not in agreement! Verily, God granted me Strakhov as a teacher and my friendship with him, my feelings for him were ever a kind of firm wall on which I felt I could always lean, or rather rest. And it won’t let you fall, and it gives warmth”

“but everyone is burdened by certain something and they plunge headfirst into hell.
In most cases that something is not their own will, usually it is their environment's or other people's expectations, and that leaves them no choice.
however, but the hell those who choose to burden themselves see is different, on the other side of the hell they can see something.
that thing they see might be hope or it could be just another hell.
But you will never know, unless you keep moving forward.”

“لم يأسره منطق الثالوث المجنون اذ لم يفهمه.
بل أسره شعر الدين الجديد، شيء احس به فى نخاعه؛بدت ترنيمة الأخوة الذين يجلسون في الظلمة والخوف وكأنها تجيب عن سؤال غامض ملح ،لبث يلاحق روحه الشابة ؛سؤال عن التوأمين الذين يصرخان في الغابة ،وعن ايكيمفونا الذي قتل. شعر براحة داخلية والترنيمة تتدفق الى روحه الجافة العطشى. كانت كلمات الترنيمة مثل قطرات المطر المتجمدة وهي تذوب علي حلق الأرض اللاهثة الجافة.”
