“Human remains ... What exactly did that mean? Was it a few hard bones and soft tissue? Clothes and accessories? Things solid and compact enough to fit inside a coffin? Or was it rather the intangible - the words we send out into the ether, the dreams we keep to ourselves, the heartbeats we skip beside our lovers, the voids we try to fill and can never adequately articulate - when all was said and done, what was left of an entire life, a human being ... and could that really be disinterred from the ground?” LifeDeathHumanityHuman Nature Book:The Island of Missing Trees Source: The Island of Missing Trees
“It is never too late to ask yourself, ‘Am I ready to change the life I am living? Am I ready to change within?’ Even if a single day in your life is the same as the day before, it surely is a pity. At every moment and with each new breath, one should be renewed and renewed again. There is only one way to be born into a new life: to die before death.” LifeDeath Book:The Forty Rules of Love Source: The Forty Rules of Love
“Each time I say good-bye to a place I like, I feel like I am leaving a part of me behind. I guess whether we choose to travel as much as Marco Polo did or stay in the same spot from cradle to grave, life is a sequence of births and deaths. Moments are born and moments die. For new experiences to come to light, old ones need to wither away.” LifeMomentsDeathTravelLeavingMarco Polo Book:The Forty Rules of Love Source: The Forty Rules of Love
“Zbog toga ne moći ispričati svoju priču, biti ušutkan i isključen znači biti dehumaniziran. A to pogađa samo ljudsko postojanje; tjera čovjeka da posumnja u svoje psihičko zdravlje, valjanost svoju inačicu događaja. U nama stvara duboku egzistencijalnu tjeskobu. Gubitkom glasa nešto u nama umire.” DeathVoiceStorySmrtGlasPriča Book:How to Stay Sane in an Age of Division Source: How to Stay Sane in an Age of Division
