Quote by Mevlana

“Günleri say, senedini say, büyüklerini say, ama yerinde sayma. Emek ver, kulak ver, bilgi ver, ama hiç bir zaman boş verme. Eşini beğen, işini beğen, aşıgını beğen, ama kendini beğenme. Fidan büyüt, çocuk doyur, çocuk besle, ama kin besleme. Hedefe koş, cihanda koş, yardıma koş, ama ortak koşma. Paranı ver, gönlünü ver, selam ver ama; sırrını verme. Davet et, hayret et, affet, töğbe et, ama ihanet etme. Okumaktan zarar gelmez oku ama, lanet okuma. Elini aç, kapını aç, gözünü aç, ama ağzını açma. Sarıcı ol, bakıcı ol, kalıcı ol, ama bölücü olma. Ev al, araba al, abdest al, ama beddua alma. Zulmü devir, nesri devir, ama çam devirme. Rakibini geç, sınıfını geç, ama gülüp geçme. Yaklaş, konuş, tanış, ama uzaklaşma. Seslen, uslan, ama yaslanma. Doğrul, devril, ama eğilme. İtil, atıl, ama satılma.”

“All they have touched or seen they make their own, In Nature’s basement lodge, mind’s passages fill, Disrupt thought’s links and musing sequences, Break through the soul’s stillness with a noise and cry Or they call the inhabitants of the abyss, Invite the instincts to forbidden joys, A laughter wake of dread demoniac mirth And with nether riot and revel shake life’s floor. Impotent to quell his terrible prisoners Appalled the householder helpless sits above, Taken from him his house is his no more. 07.02_117:032-033”

“He dreams sometimes of the revels of the gods And sees the Dionysian gesture pass,— A leonine greatness that would tear his soul If through his failing limbs and fainting heart The sweet and joyful mighty madness swept: Trivial amusements stimulate and waste The energy given to him to grow and be. His little hour is spent in little things. 02.05_046:007-008”

“The savage tom-tom of her activity was proceeding at an incredible tempo when it came to an abrupt halt: Ken winced visibly at the sound of sheets being ripped violently from the carriage and dropped into the wastebasket. I nrapid succession he considered and rejected the possibilities of: (1) urging Miss Todd to accomplish her task at a less tempestuous and disastrous pace, (2) paging Jane at Bonwit Teller's, (3) leaving banking for a less new\rve-wracking profession and (4) committing suicide.”

“Now that you've taken charge of me, milady, what's your next command?" The question was casual, with a hint of friendly teasing. But she was stunned by the reservoir of feeling he'd unlocked in her, so vast she was drowning in it. A feeling of pure longing. And until this moment, she'd never even known it was there. She tried to think of some clever reply. But the only thing her mind could summon was something impulsive and silly. Kiss me. She would never say something so brazen, of course. It would appear desperate or mad, and it would embarrass both of them. And for a business owner to behave in such an unprofessional manner with a customer- well, that didn't bear thinking of. But as Merritt saw his blank expression, a horrid realization made something inside her plunge. "Oh, God," she said faintly, her fingers flying to her mouth. "Did I say that out loud?”
