Quote by Fereidoon Yazdi

“شخصیت کالا نیست که در بازار تهیه شود، شخصیت، به قیمت خون دل و عمر انسان بدست می آید. شخصیت، رهایی از عمومیت، و رسیدن به فردیت در عین زندگی در اجتماع است. کلمه را که نگاه کنی، ازریشه ی "شخص" می آید. برای همین، شخصیت، آن چیزی نیست که دیگران برای تو تعیین کنند، آن چیزیست که تو به بهای زندگیت بدست آورده ای.”

“If there is one thing I have come to believe over the years, it’s the notion that there really is somebody for everybody. Every single person is going to look at beauty from a different angle.

And… there isn’t a person on earth that everybody on earth finds attractive.”

“For if we are observed in all matters, we are constantly under threat of correction, judgment, criticism, even plagiarism of our own uniqueness. We become children, fettered under watchful eyes, constantly fearful that — either now or in the uncertain future — patterns we leave behind will be brought back to implicate us, by whatever authority has now become focused upon our once-private and innocent acts. We lose our individuality, because everything we do is observable and recordable." [The Eternal Value of Privacy, May 18, 2006]”
