“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

“ . "The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential... these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence."”

The Analects of Confucius • Confucius

“In every cradle decked with rosy wreath Lurk germs of death.”

Hope • VICTOR HUGO

“my lad, as far as I can see, free-thinking women are all monsters." ”

Fathers and Sons • Ivan Turgenev

“There never were in the world two opinions alike, no more than two hairs or two grains; the most universal quality is diversity. ”

Essays • Michel De Montaigne
