“We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Walden: Or, Life in the Woods

“Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.”
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

“Memleketimde ve yeryüzündeki insanların çoğu mahrumdur bol bol düşünebilmek saadetinden. Vakitleri ve imkanları yok. O kadar çok çalışıyor, öyle yorgundurlar ki gece, altmış yaşında bile, yatağa girdikleri zaman uyku kurşun gibi bastırıyor. Belki uykuda rüya görülür, ama düşünülmez.”
― Nâzım Hikmet Ran, Human Landscapes from My Country: An Epic Novel in Verse

“I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Walden or, Life in the Woods
