“الفيلسوف هو إنسان لم يستطع يوما أن يتعود على العالم.و العالم يظل بالنسبة له شيئا غير قابل للتفسير، وشيئا غريبا، ملغزا”
― جوستاين غاردر, Sophie’s World

“Ask yourself my love whether you are not very cruel to have so entrammelled me, so destroyed my freedom. Will you confess this in the Letter you must write immediately, and do all you can to console me in it — make it rich as a draught of poppies to intoxicate me —write the softest words and kiss them that I may at least touch my lips where yours have been. For myself I know not how to express my devotion to so fair a form: I want a brighter word than bright, a fairer word than fair.”
― John Keats, Bright Star: Love Letters and Poems of John Keats to Fanny Brawne
