“حرف كه مي‌زني
من از هراس طوفان
زل مي‌زنم به ميز
به زيرسيگاري
به خودكار
تا باد مرا نبرد به آسمان.
لبخند كه مي‌زني
من

به آستين پيراهن ا‌ت
تا فرو نروم در زمين.

در عین
در شين
درقاف
در نقطه‌ها.”

And the rest will be honest as long as the conditions are right - but if they are tempted enough, they'll be dishonest too.

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.”
― Henry David Thoreau

«من» خسته است”

“Comrades!' he cried. 'You do not imagine, I hope, that we pigs are doing this in a spirit of selfishness and privilege? Many of us actually dislike milk and apples. I dislike them myself.

We pigs are brainworkers. The whole management and organisation of this farm depend on us. Day and night we are watching over your welfare. It is for your sake that we drink the milk and eat those apples.”
