“You are — your life, and nothing else.”

I found the human heart empty and insipid everywhere except in books.

Nothingness haunts Being.

We only become what we are by the radical and deep-seated refusal of that which others have made of us.

We do not know what we want and yet we are responsible for what we are – that is the fact.

What is important is not what happens to us, but how we respond to what happens to us.

It is therefore senseless to think of complaining since nothing foreign has decided what we feel, what we live, or what we are.

All that I know about my life, it seems, I have learned in books.

Your judgement judges you and defines you.

Three o’clock is always too late or too early for anything you want to do.

Fear? If I have gained anything by damning myself, it is that I no longer have anything to fear.

I wanted the moments of my life to follow and order themselves like those of a life remembered. You might as well try and catch time by the tail.

As for me, I am mean: that means that I need the suffering of others to exist. A flame. A flame in their hearts. When I am all alone, I am extinguished.

All men are Prophets or else God does not exist.

To think new thoughts you have to break the bones in your head.

Nothingness lies coiled in the heart of being – like a worm.

I have no religion, but if I were to choose one, it would be that of Shariati’s.

I know i say i don’t care, but if you were on the verge of dying i’d give you my life.

Your life should not be lived according to the society’s standards. Do what you always wanted to do, pursue your passion.

If you love a person you will not interfere with his personal life. You would not dare to break the boundaries of his inner world.

A smooth and easy life doesn’t make you successful.

We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.

Release all your negative beliefs about yourself & invite wealth into your life.

Life should be great rather than long.

Is it too late to bring those forevers back to life?
