Annihilation itself is no death to evil. Only good where evil was, is evil dead. An evil thing must live with its evil until it chooses to be good. That alone is the slaying of evil. ↗

Bismilahir-rahmanir-rahim! I call to witness the ink, the quill, and the script, which flows from the quill; I call to witness the faltering shadows of the sinking evening, the night and all she enlivens; I call to witness the moon when she waxes, and the sunrise when it dawns. I call to witness the Resurrection Day and the soul that accuses itself; I call to witness time, the beginning and end of all things - to witness that every man always suffers loss. ↗

Rekao je: Nisu za griješnicima plakali ni nebo ni zemlja. A ja sam mislio: teško čovjeku ako su mu mjera nebo i zemlja. ↗

Nikad čovjek ne smije misliti da je siguran, ni da je umrlo što je prošlo. ↗

Žena zna, žene uvijek znaju, makar ništa ne bilo rečeno, i prije će pomisliti da jest nego da nije. ↗

...izgleda daleko sve što treba da se desi, i sasvim nestvarno. Duboko u sebi vjerujem da se neće ni desiti. Znam da hoće, ali se nešto u meni smješka, opire, odbija. Desiće se, ali je nemoguće.Ono što znam nije dovoljno. Još je suviše života u mome srcu, i ne pristajem da shvatim. Možda i zato ovo pišem: nisam klonuo, otklanjam smrt. ↗

Mrs Darley, I noticed, always had her corn dolly amidst an arrangement of cornflowers and poppies (albeit they were artificial!). The corn, I was to later understand, represented the God, the red poppies his sacrificial blood and the blue cornflowers his death and this is something I still adhere to today. ↗

It’s strange how dreams get under your skin and give your heart a test for what’s real and what’s imaginary. ↗

If you are a dreamer, come in, If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar, A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer... If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire For we have some flax-golden tales to spin. Come in! Come in! ↗
