"...He didn't know the tune, just the words he'd once found, glancing through Turgenev's letters:
Russia, my cherished mother,
She doesn't take anything by force;
She only takes things willingly surrendered
While holding a knife to your throat."

Aurika Kaauri is 67% done with My Name Is Red
The beauty and mystery of this world only emerges through affection, attention, interest and compassion; if you want to live in that paradise where happy mares and stallions live, open your eyes wide and actually see this world by attending to its colors, details and irony.

My Enishte, may he rest in peace, used to say that any fault arising not from lack of ability or talent, but from the depths of the miniaturist's soul, ought not be deemed fault but style.

Aurika Kaauri is 18% done with My Name Is Red
Before the art of illumination there was blackness and afterwards there will also be blackness. Through our colors, paints, art and love, we remember that Allah had commanded us to "see"! To know is to remember that you've seen. To see is to know without remembering. Thus, painting is remembering the blackness.

Mi-a spus că-i place să se plimbe de una singură. Mi-am amintit de o gluma a lui Schopenhauer și i-am răspuns:
- La fel și mie. Putem să ne plimbăm deci împreună.

Cândva, răposatul tău tată ne-a spus că timpul nu se poate măsura în zile, așa cum se măsoară banii în centavos și în pesos, din pricină că banii sunt egali, dar fiecare zi e diferită și, poate, fiecare ceas.

Aurika Kaauri is 59% done with The Satanic Verses
When you looked through an angel's eyes you saw essences instead of surfaces, you saw the decay of the soul blistering and bubbling on the skins of people in the street, you saw the generosity of certain spirits resting on their shoulders in the form of birds.

An iceberg is water striving to be land; a mountain, especially a Himalaya, especially Everest, is land's attempt to metamorphose into sky.

"I have a beard," Dr. Montague said, pleased, and looked around at them with a happy beam. "My wife," he told them, "likes a man to wear a beard. Many women, on the other hand, find a beard distasteful. A clean-shaven man - you'll excuse me, my boy - never looks fully dressed, my wife tells me."
