Guy Gavriel Kay
“And so saw, by a trick, an angle, a flaring of torchlight far down the dark river, how the arrow—white-feathered, she would remember, white as innocence, as winter in midsummer, as death—fell from the summit of its long, high arc to take the coran in the shoulder, driving him, slack and helpless, from the rope into the river amid laughter turned to screaming in the night.”
Guy Gavriel Kay, A Song for Arbonne

Marc Guggenheim
“Sooner or later, we all go through a crucible. I'm guessing your's was that island. Most believe there are two types of people who go into a crucible: the ones who grow stronger from the experience and survive it, and the ones who die. But there's a third type: the ones who learn to love the fire. They chose to stay in their crucible because it's easier to embrace the pain when it's all you know anymore,”
Marc Guggenheim

Ahmad Fuadi
“Clever and civilized men will not stay home
Leave your homeland and explore foreign fields
Go out! You shall find replacement for those you have left
Give your all, the sweetness of life will be tasted after the struggle
I have seen that standing water stagnates
If it flows, it is pure, if it does not, it will become murky
If the lion doesn’t leave his den, he will not eat
If the arrow does not leave the bow, it will not strike
If the sun stands still in its orbit
Man will tire of it
Gold dust merely soil before excavated
Aloewood is just ordinary wood if in the forest

Travel by Imam Syafii”
Ahmad Fuadi, Negeri 5 Menara

Jarod Kintz
“The only way to kill a holographic squiblob is to shoot it with a light-beam arrow. Come on, man. You'd know that if you'd take off your virtual reality goggles and start living in the real world. I have space FOR RENT here on my duck farm.”
Jarod Kintz, Music is fluid, and my saxophone overflows when my ducks slosh in the sounds I make in elevators.

“The word 'Dorf' lies, although the Dablem Dorf station is covered with straw. Arabian students hang out in front of the entrance to the underground, and only the German kiosk of the kabob seller clues us in that the bus did not arrive through a secret passage and set us down in Morocco. The University buildings are hidden among trees, intertwining paths and signposts, which exclude each other. The arrow points to another arrow 3 m away, which is pointing back, perpendicular to the first. With signs making sure no one can get lost during his search, he searches and searches and it seems entirely irrelevant that he can never find the place he is searching for by tracing the signs. A Mobius strip, the circular blindness of the streets, and exhausted Minotaur are harbingers of the paths of this place, which only multiply behind the revolving door of the Ethnological Museum.”
Aleš Šteger, Berlin

Mike Bond

Mehmet Murat ildan
“Student: Master, all the arrows I shot today hit the target! Now I'm an arrow master! Master: There is a master, and there is a master above masters! Now go, try to hit the same target while jumping, when it's windy, when the target is running, when you are blindfolded, when handstand, when a dog trying to bite you behind you, then come here, let's talk again!”
Mehmet Murat ildan
