“ اماميهن يك قطعه خاك نيست. خاك هرجاهست. ميهن آن ميهني كه لايق دلبستگي باشد تركيب مي‌شود از فضاي فكري يك دسته آدم شايسته. شايستگي هم از فهم مي‌آيد نه از اطاعت بي‌گفت‌وگوي هردستور، حتي اگر دستور از روي فهم و دقت و انصاف هم باشد. حيف است آنچه "عاطفه"‌اش نام مي‌دهي فدائي و قرباني خيال غلط باشد. ”
― ابراهیم گلستان

“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”
― C.S. Lewis
