““Oh, threats of Hell and Hopes of Paradise! / One thing at least is certain — This Life flies; / One thing is certain and the rest is Lies; / The Flower that once has blown for ever dies.””

Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam • Omar Khayyam

“The unconscious self is the real genius. Your breathing goes wrong the moment your conscious self meddles with it.”

Maxim for Revolutionists • George Bernard Shaw

“My life appeared to me as unnatural, uncertain and incredible as the design on the pencase I am using at this moment. It seems that a painter who has been possessed, perhaps a perfectionist, has painted the cover of this pencase. Often, when I look at this design, it seems familiar; perhaps it is because of this design that I write or perhaps this design makes me write.”

The Blind Owl • Sadegh Hedayat

“ “He dies only the five senses that we know perish with him, and the other ninety-five remain alive.””

Uncle Vanya • Anton Chekhov

“Scandal is gossip made tedious by morality.”

Lady Windermere's Fan • Oscar Wilde
