Tarinoista

"Everyone underestimates their own life. Funny thing is, in the end, all our stories - your life, my life, old Husain's life, they're the same. In fact, no matter where you go in the world, there is only one important story: of youth, and loss, and yearning for redemption. So we tell the same story, over and over. Just the details are different."

Rohinton Mistryn kirjasta Family Matters.

Minusta

"Minä en ole mitään.
Minusta ei koskaan tule mitään.
En jaksa haluta olla mitään.
Paitsi että minussa on kaikki maailman unelmat."

Fernando Pessoan runosta Tupakkakauppa kirjassa En minä aina ole sama

Rakkaudesta

"The happiness of love is a shooting meteor;
the pain of love is the darkness following."

Yiyun Lin novellista Extra

Kirjoista

"A book is 
a garden,
an orchard,
a storehouse,
a party,
a counsellor,
a multitude of counsellors."

Henry Ward Beecher

Elämästä

"The life that I could still live, I should 
live, and the thoughts that I could still
think, I should think."

Carl G. Jung kirjassa The Red Book.

Voimasta

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us: it's in everyone. And as we let our one light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."


Our Deepest Fear Marianne Williamsonin kirjasta Return to Love
