Quote by Sohrab Sepehri

“جای من نزدیک معلم بود. پشت میزش نشسته بود و ذکر میکرد. وجودش بطلان ذکر بود. آدمی بی رویا بود. پیدا بود زنجره را نمیفهمد، خطمی را نمیشناسد و قصه بلد نیست. میشد گفت هیچ وقت پرپرچه نداشته است. در حضور او خیالات من چروک میخورد. وقتی وارد کلاس میشد ما از اوج خیال میافتادیم. در تن خود حاضر میشدیم. پرهای ما ریخته بود. انگار سرنگون بودیم.”

“Focusing on your dreams may force you to quit some things, but if you persist in doing the right thing, you will succeed. No matter how hard the journey may be, do not give in. Embrace the dawning of a new season, one filled with possibilities and fresh beginnings. Take action—push beyond the ordinary and strive for results that are outstanding.”

“Some may loathe you for being too focused on your dreams. Do not let that get to you. Your job is to pursue those dreams until people look up to you. They may not understand your vision now, but they will eventually recognize your breakthrough.”

“Sober, gainfully employed, and physically secure once again, Kevin began to relax. His confidence slowly returned. For the first time since the onset of his blindness, he let his guard down and a crack in his carefully constructed veneer formed. Light flooded in. And with it, hope.”

“I am absent in my dream. In my mirror my counterfeit does not make an entrance. He craves my loneliness despite my uselessness. I have finally made up my mind to recommend suicide to him. I point him toward the viewless window. It is a win­ dow for suicide. But he instructs me that if I do not kill myself then he cannot kill himself either. The me-inside-the-mirror is almost a phoenix.”

“Once we become our own ghosts, we constantly ask how we died and who ultimately killed us— we never recall the moment when everything turned against us, how we drowned in the demands of life. Like someone waking from a dream, suddenly wary-eyed and cold, we finally remember that we haunted others and fled our own souls by imitating their lives nearly perfectly, yet death eventually caught up with us. Somehow, we ask ourselves where everyone else has gone and how nothing ever escaped the mind we now possess.”
