“I was not in full control of myself, and it seemed that I knew her name from before. The evil in her eyes, her color, her scent and her movements were all familiar to me. It was as though my souls, in the life before this, in the world of imagination, had bordered on her soul and that both souls, of the same essence and substance, were destined for union. I must have lived this life very close to her. I had no desire to touch her; the invisible beams that emanated from our bodies and mingled were sufficient for me. Isn't this terrifying experience which seemed so familiar to met quite the same as the feelings of two lovers who feel that they have known each other before and that a mysterious relationship has previously existed between them? Was it possible that someone else could affect me? The dry, repulsive and ominous laughter of the old man, however, tore our bonds asunder.”
The Blind Owl • Sadegh Hedayat““Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply.””
The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People • Stephen R. Covey“All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy.”
The Importance of Being Earnest • Oscar Wilde“Someone who's on top of the world isn't much of an observer: happy people are poor psychologists. But someone who's troubled about something is on the alert. The perceived threat sharpens his senses - he takes in more than he usually does.”
The Post Office Girl • Stefan Zweig“The streets of London have their map, but our passions are uncharted. What are you going to meet if you turn this corner?”
Jacob's Room • Virginia Woolf
