““But I come from no country, from no city, no tribe. I am the son of the road, my country is the caravan, my life the most unexpected of voyages.””
Leo Africanus • Amin Maalouf“Do you remember you shot a seagull? A man came by chance, saw it and destroyed it, just to pass the time.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov““Life is like a fire. Flames forgotten by the night on the road, ashes scattered in front of the wind; here, a human life has come and gone.””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf“It is the same with any life. Imagine one selected day struck out of it, and think how different its course would have been. Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day.”
Great Expectations • Charles Dickens“Remember this— that there is a proper dignity and proportion to be observed in the performance of every act of life.”
Book IV • Marcus Aurelius
