Famous Dahi Tamara Koch Quotes

“What is it like to fall in love? What does it feel like? It's this tingling sensation you feel, somewhere in the remotest corners of your stomach. The feeling that butterflies are dancing within you. The feeling that you never want to sleep again because reality finally feels better than any dream you've dreamt before. The feeling that all the colours all around you radiate a bit more than they did before and that your own radiance competes with all the colours all around you. The feeling that all the people all around you drink in this radiance, giving it back to you and that everything is ablaze with light and that everything fell into place and that everything will stay in this place. The feeling that your own happiness is intertwined with this significant other who suddenly found his way into your life. The feeling you feel within you whenever this significant other looks at you in this way, he doesn't look at anyone else. The feeling that you have already known this significant other for ages. The feeling that you waited for this significant other all your life. The feeling that you want to spend the rest of your days with this significant other. The feeling that you're not solely yourself and him not solely himself but that what has changed is bearing a name: we. We, together.”

“Age is merely a numeric concept. It tells us nothing about wisdom, the nature of the soul, or life experiences. The physically young can feel like the old and the old can move through life with a light-hearted, childlike nature. The scars of time often are not visible from the outside. At times you can encounter a seemingly young girl who ingested life as a concentrate and who had non-visibly aged in a time-lapse. A lot of things can go awry in your life. And the world owns a lot of possibilities to let you suffer. Living isn't for the faint-hearted. Ageing isn't as well. Therefore it takes a lot of strength to make the walls collapse, to find the way back to the surface, to leave hopelessness behind. To accept and cherish life, to understand its concept, might be a lifelong task. It might take ages, but it is possible. For each and every individual. No matter what you had to go through.”

“Like an open book I long to tell you the story of my whole life. I want to show you my innermost like an open book so that you can read it. Anything that you want. I want to be perceivable and … that you can perceive me. I want to be comprehensible, like a mathematical formula you can solve, even if I cannot solve myself. I long for you to solve me. I long for you to read me like an open book. Anything that you want. […] I long for you to tell me the story of your whole life. I want you to show your innermost like an open book, so that I can read it. Anything that I want. I want to make you perceivable and … that I can perceive you. I want to make you comprehensible, like a mathematical formula I can solve, even if you cannot solve yourself. I long for us to be solvable. That we show each other our innermost, like an open book. Anything that we have ever wanted.”

“Love doesn't solely consist of books, films, and music and sharing the same past. It consists of the present and the future. It consists of the understanding that you want to grow and prosper together. That you don't solely look at each other but also look in the same direction. We faced different directions, and it's no use to stick to that. We would waste away our time. We only live once. We're obliged to fill our time how we honestly, sincerely, want it to be. My darling, sometimes love isn't enough. Ours we have lost in a time in which both of us kept moving without looking at each other. You will always be a part of me, and I will remain a part of you. You were a good chapter, but never more than that.”

“I have to write. I have to write and re-write myself in all that's hidden within me. The unspoken heart is the place I need to travel to, to rediscover the language that I had lost. I felt and hoped myself empty in dreams that never belonged to me. So how can I be with myself? My heart struggled itself out of my body, lying shattered in pieces all over the places I've never been to and won't ever be, while my head is the only thing remaining, dethinking itself in all that hadn't been and won't ever be.”

“When I think back to the first time we met, it feels like a dream," you said, only a few days later. And thus you voiced what came true only a few months later. It had been a dream. [...] "Even then, you have sealed our preterite," I said. "Why do you say something like this," you asked me. "Because we never had the chance to share the present.”

“the last words have been spoken hanging over my head – the sword of Damocles since the beginning of time I will keep on weeping over thoughts and over you wandering about all of my rooms your absence is all around me and the silence is more frightening then any sound has been before too much is truth in those words: that wonders are falsehood and the days are gone, never to return”

“Real love,” said the old carpenter to the young lady, “is a cock-and-bull story, told by an idiot.” “But why,” she answered, “are you talking in those harsh, black-woven words? You need to believe that one day you will see the light. Maybe this nightmare you've pierced inside your head is only a dream.”

“I swam in the open seas and a faceless man counted the time that nevermore belongs to me. Do you feel the same? Do you dream of a time that bears another name? You drew me in your own image and I wrote your name all over my heart – fiery lights are all I see behind my eyes.”

“Dancing is my passion. Dancing means dreaming with your feet. The poetry of your body. What I cannot express with words I express with my body. I move to the music, let it flow through my limbs. Form the notes within me. Make them visible. Become one with the music. I become an instrument. I become music. I am music. I am entirely in the moment. I live and breathe and swirl in a circle, flow in gentle movements with the harmonies, fly through the skies. I am all mine, all my own. I am free.”
