Rumi

“This is another lie. We are only seeking Man. We have no need of other worlds. A single world, our own, suffices us; but we can't accept it for what it is. We are searching for an ideal image of our own world: we go in quest of a planet, a civilization superior to our own but developed on the basis of a prototype of our primeval past.”
― Stanislaw Lem, Solaris

“Във всяка секунда на този свят има една дълга върволица от плачещи хора и една по-малка от смеещи се.
Но има и трета върволица, която вече не плаче и вече не се смее.
Най-тъжната от трите. За нея ми се говори.”
― Георги Господинов, Natural Novel

“It’s so much easier for people to get excited about disliking something than agreeing to like it. The circle jerk of mockery and self-congratulation was so intense I didn’t even notice I was at its center. It was so easy to get people to follow me, and in the end, that’s what I wanted.”
― Hank Green, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing

“I’d heard all this before, but I also knew that this line of argument worked. If you tell people that they’re being attacked for their beliefs, then suddenly they want to defend their beliefs, even if they didn’t really believe them before. It’s pretty amazing, really.”
― Hank Green, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing
