“I will not accept boundaries; appearances cannot contain me; I choke! To bleed in this agony, and to live it profoundly, is the second duty.
The mind is patient and adjusts itself, it likes to play; but the heart grows savage and will not condescend to play; it stifles and rushes to tear apart the nets of necessity.”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, Askees. Salvatores Dei

“Να πεθαίνεις κάθε μέρα. Να γεννιέσαι κάθε μέρα. Ν' αρνιέσαι ό, τι έχεις κάθε μέρα. Η ανώτατη αρετή δεν είναι να' σαι ελεύτερος, παρά να μάχεσαι για ελευτερία.
Μην καταδέχεσαι να ρωτάς: "Θα νικήσουμε; Θα νικηθούμε;" Πολέμα!”
― Νίκος Καζαντζάκης, Ασκητική

“What are you looking at, grandfather?" he asked with curiosity.
The old man raised his head and smiled sadly. "At my life flowing and disappearing, son, flowing and disappearing."
"Don't worry, grandfather, it knows where it is going–toward the sea, everyone's life flows toward the sea."
The old man sighed. "Yes, my son, that is why the sea is salty—from the many tears."
He turned back to the flowing stream and did not speak again.”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, The Fratricides
