Quote by Ova Ceren

“Grief is the beast with the sharpest claws. It’s sacred. It’s consuming. It’s unstoppable. You, my rarest reader, must already fathom how it cannot be cast aside or defeated, for this book would not have found you otherwise. The beast will wound you deeply. There will be times when you are certain it will kill you. And yet, you will endure. Until the pain you deemed a punishment becomes your reward, guiding you to a realm of peace that will be only yours and yours alone – just as the beast that delivered you there. Excerpt from The Book of Revenge, Müneccimbaşı Sufi Chelebi’s Journals of Mystical Phenomena”

“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.”

“Someday you will find yourself laughing at a joke when you thought you would never be happy again. You will find yourself smiling and admiring the beauty of the mountains, when the world once felt so cruel and unforgiving. And maybe when trotting on the back of a horse, you will hear your heart beating, I'm still here. I'm still here.”

“Sinto o calor de uma tarde de verão E um vento calmo mas persistente Talvez leve com ele a minha solidão Que em mim toca insistentemente Estou triste, muito triste até Mas não quero largar este sentimento As distrações prazerosas não ajudam A perceber o meu tormento Não foi só porque partiste que estou assim Também perdi o meu propósito O que é que quero para mim? Qual é o meu caminho? Ainda estou a descobri-lo aos poucos, devagarinho.”

“If I am on the move and not in one place, then I can perhaps outrun myself. If I linger, then like dark flies on a dead deer, the memories and thoughts land and terror seems to fester and pull me in. I cannot bear to be at [home], where too many people will be watching me, waiting for something to happen, waiting for me to sink or swim, when all I want to do is float, as I did in hospital when the present was held at bay.”
