― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“What is next to ecstasy?"
"Pain."
"What is next to pain?"
"Nothingness."
"What is next to nothingness?"
"Hell.”
― Umera Ahmed, Peer e Kamil

“Here we do not believe in wasting time simply for the purpose of impressing others.”

“In that last dance of chances

I shall partner you no more.

I shall watch another turn you

As you move across the floor.


In that last dance of chances

When I bid your life goodbye

I will hope she treats you kindly.

I will hope you learn to fly.


In that last dance of chances

When I know you'll not be mine

I will let you go with longing

And the hope that you'll be fine.


In that last dance of chances

We shall know each other's minds.

We shall part with our regrets

When the tie no longer binds.”
― Robin Hobb, Fool's Fate
