Quote by Ivan Turgenev

“شعر زبان خدایان است. من هم شعر را دوست دارم. ولی شعر تنها منظومه نیست؛ شعر در همه جا هست، دور و بر ما همه شعر است. به این درخت ها و این آسمان نگاه کنید. زندگی و زیبایی از هر طرف به چشم می خورد. هر جا زندگی و زیبایی وجود دارد شعر هم آن جا هست.”

True incommensurability is nothingness, which has no barriers and is where a person can spread out her thought-feeling.”

“Is it not strange how such things can happen, momentous things, things that seem to change the world itself and yet they do not? The river flows, the sun shines, the birds sing. Nature is indifferent to man. Which is perhaps why we can find in it a source of healing. We may be wounded, but it is not. Despite our weariness, it renews itself continually. I find that thought comforting.”
