“The ocean can be yours; why should you stop
Beguiled by dreams of evanescent dew?
The secrets of the sun are yours, but you
Content yourself with motes trapped in beams.”
― Farīd al-Dīn ʻAṭṭār, The Conference of the Birds

“Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, Crime and Punishment

“جایی که بودن و نبودنت هیچ فرقی ندارد
نبودنت را انتخاب کن.
اینگونه، به بودنت احترام گذاشته ای”
― هاروکی موراکامی
