There are some moments in life, some feelings; one can only point to them and pass by.
Ivan TurgenevLove, I thought, is stronger than death or the fear of death. Only by it, by love, life holds together and advances.
Ivan TurgenevThe people who bind themselves to systems are those who are unable to encompass the whole truth and try to catch it by the tail; a system is like the tail of truth, but truth is like a lizard; it leaves its tail in your fingers and runs away knowing full well that it will grow a new one in a twinkling.
