Quote by Leju Thomas

“Life's cruel hand has carved me hollow, My soul aches beneath its silent weight. No bitterness resides within, Yet, I long for solitude's gentle touch. Let the world fade like falling leaves, Their voices mere whispers in the wind. I seek solace in forgotten corners, Where silence echoes my pain. Sunsets weep, staining the sky with sorrow, As I walk the path of sadness. No anger dwells in my fragile heart, Just the desperate plea: " leave me alone - leave me alone.”

“In the quiet of my hollow existence, I yearn for solitude’s tender embrace. Let the world fade like autumn leaves, their voices mere whispers in the wind. Amid forgotten corners, silence echoes my pain. Sunsets weep, staining the sky with sorrow, as I tread the path of sadness. My fragile heart harbors no anger—only a desperate plea: “Leave me alone, leave me alone.”

“The love that we know is momentary. One day it is there, the next day it is gone. The momentariness shows that it is not real love. It can be many things, but it is not real love. It can be sex, a psychological need, the fear of being alone, an effort to remain occupied with another person or the need to fill one's loneliness and emptiness. If it is real love, the most essential quality would be that it is everlasting. Once you have tasted eternal love, timeless love, it ill transform you. Then you are no more part of the mundane world. You have entered into the sacred world. You go on living in the same ordinary world, but you become more ordinary than before. You lose all pretensions. You forget about being somebody. You become utterly ordinary. In that ordinariness, there is a silence, a grace and a beauty. You become full of light, because you are full of love. you are always ready to share with others, because you have found an inexhaustible inner source. This love has nothing to do with relationships. The love that is eternal relates, but it never creates relationships. It relates with the trees, with the wind, with the animals, with the people, with the earth and with the sun. Relating is like a flowing river, while relationships are something stagnant, which has stopped growing. And when something has stopped growing, you start feeling bored, because you start losing contact with life. Life is always like a river, but you are tethered to something: a wife, a husband, a relationship. Man's greatest joy is to be free. And a relationship is creating a situation in which that freedom is lost. A being is alive when it is becoming. Being is becoming. If you stop becoming, your being becomes like a rock. You have to know the difference between relating and relationships. This is true about both life and love. Never lose your freedom. And never destroy anybody else's freedom. A real religious person remains free, and he helps people who come to him, to be free. He never possesses anybody, and he never allows anybody else to possess him. Then life becomes a constant growth, which goes higher and higher.”

“Perplexed and unhappy she would seek out her father on all social occasions and would sit down beside him. Like a very small child this large muscular creature would sit down beside him because she felt lonely, and because youth most rightly resents isolation, and because she had not yet learnt her hard lesson—she had not yet learnt that the loneliest place in this world is the no-man's-land of sex.”

“Jestem sama we wrogim świecie. Ludzka twarz jest odrażająca. To dobrze. Chcę rozgłosu i przemocy, i chcę się roztrzaskać jak kamień o skały. Lubię kominy fabryczne i dźwigi, i ciężarówki. Lubię pochody twarzy i twarzy, i twarzy, zniekształconych, obojętnych. Mam dość ładności. Mam dość odosobnienia. Unoszę się na wzburzonej wodzie i zatonę, i nikt mnie nie uratuje.”
