مهدی اخوان ثالث
“لحظه ی دیدار نزدیک است
باز من دیوانه ام ، مستم
باز می لرزد ، دلم ، دستم
باز گویی در جهان دیگری هستم
های ! نخراشی به غفلت گونه ام را ، تیغ
های ، نپریشی صفای زلفکم را ، دست
و آبرویم را نریزی ، دل
ای نخورده مست
لحظه ی دیدار نزدیک است”
مهدی اخوان ثالث / Mehdi Akhavan Sales

Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan - The Impect Of The Highly Improbable
