“There is only one thing that I dread: not to be worthy of my sufferings.”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky

“I was a Flower of the mountain yes when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used or shall I wear a red yes and how he kissed me under the Moorish wall and I thought well as well him as another and then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my mountain flower and first I put my arms around him yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad and yes I said yes I will Yes.”
― James Joyce, Ulysses

“Who is the third who walks always beside you?
When I count, there are only you and I together
But when I look ahead up the white road
There is always another one walking beside you
Gliding wrapt in a brown mantle, hooded
I do not know whether a man or a woman
-But who is that on the other side of you?”
― T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land and Other Poems

“اگر کسی مرا خواست
بگویید: رفته باران ها را تماشا کند.
و اگر اصرار کرد،
بگویید: برای دیدن طوفان ها
رفته است!
و اگر باز هم سماجت کرد،
بگویید:
رفته است تا دیگر بازنگردد...”
― بیژن جلالی
