Quote by Romina Paula

“Poor thing. I note I already feel affection for her, and I have the weirdest urge, on the one hand, to go and sit with her and tell her stories or read to her while she's on bed rest, while on the other hand I want to smother her with a pillow or give her a bunch of tranquilizers or sleeping pills so she gives me back the world, so it gets given back to me, the world and everything that has to do with it.”

“To Her Steady Lover - Poem by Jibanananda Das There is no meaning in living—I don't say this. There is meaning for some, may be for all—may be a perfect meaning. Yet I hear the white sound of wind-driven birds In the water of the distant seas beneath the burning summer sun. The candle burns slowly, very slowly, on my table; The books of intellect are more still—unwavering— lost in meditation; Yet when you go out on to the streets or even while sitting by the window side Will you sense the frenzied dance of violent waters; Right beside that a book of your cheeks; no more like a lantern, Perhaps like a conch-shell lying on the beach as if ocean's father It is also a music by his own merit—like Nature: caustic—lovable—finally like the most favourite entity. So I get the taste of expansive wind in the airing of maddening grievances; Otherwise in the mind's forest the python coils up around the doe: I feel the pitiable hint of a life like that in the Sceptre of protest. Some glacier-cold still flock of Cormorants will realize my words; When the electric-compass of life will cease They will eat up snow-grey sleep like polar seas in endless grasp.”

“What can you do if they don’t take it? You can’t go ask: “Why didn’t you take my writing?” They didn’t take it; that’s it. More importantly, I never sent my stuff to them. I knew they wouldn’t publish. But the first non-Hungry writing I had perhaps given to Golpo-Kobita. Subhash and Basudev also wrote in that magazine later. Then, I was also enmeshed in a lot of things…marriage, home, office.”

“حسنا ، أنت جزيرة نائية بالقرب من نجوم بعد الظهر. بصق القرفة وبنيرا هناك هناك العزلة. دم هذا العالم هو نجاح الدم صحيح، لكن الحقيقة الأخيرة ليست صحيحة. كالكوتا يوم واحد كالكوتا سيكون tilatama. لكن قلبي قريب منك. اليوم ، يستدير الكثير من النفوس المشاكسة شعوب العالم مثل البشر بينما يعطي الحب ، رأيت في يدي ربما قتل وقع الاخوة والاخوات في الحب. المرض الأعمق للأرض الآن ؛ لا يزال الناس مدينون للعالم. السفن تأتي في ضوء الشمس من ميناءنا رأى المحصول الذي تم التوصل إليه. حبيبات عدد لا يحصى من البشر ؛ عجب الذهب من الذبيحة والدنا ، مثل بوذا كونفوشيوس ، يعيش مثلنا يضع البكم. ومع ذلك ، فإن الدعوة للعمل الدامي في Charidas. الوعي ، نور هذا الطريق - سيكون نظام العالم ؛ هو رجل من قرون عديدة. هذه الرياح هي أشعة الشمس المطلقة. تقريبا بقدر المجتمع الإنساني الجيد متعب بحار متعب مثلنا في متناول اليد لن أفعل ذلك اليوم ، في نهاية الليل. عندما جئت إلى الأرض في تربة الأرض ، إذا كنت لا تشعر بالرضا ؛ لقد جاء لفهم الأرباح العميقة يمس الندى الجسم في الفجر. لقد رأيت ذلك لن يحدث للناس - كل شروق الشمس الأبدي على ضوء القمر من الليل الأبدي.”

“Προτιμώ να γίνω στάχτη παρά σκόνη! Προτιμώ η σπίθα μου να καεί σε μια λαμπρή φλόγα παρά να πνιγεί από την ξηρή σήψη. Προτιμώ να είμαι ένας υπέροχος μετεωρίτης, κάθε άτομό μου σε υπέροχη λάμψη, παρά ένας νυσταγμένος και μόνιμος πλανήτης. Η σωστή λειτουργία του ανθρώπου είναι να ζει, όχι να υπάρχει”

“You probably fucked a priest and now your baby's going to be a monkey. And it won't get born with a silver spoon in its mouth, it'll be wearing a little black and white collar like so-" Little Mary jumps up and begins to dance around making hooh-hooh monkey sounds and putting her fingers to her neck. She's talented. She like the dark side, the devil version of her supersmart dad, Eddy.”

“Being jealous does nothing. It turns you into a person who’s unable to feel genuine happiness, and tarnishes every accomplishment when it’s used to measure your sense of worth on a made-up scale. You hear about a friend’s promotion (in an industry that probably isn’t yours) and feel like you will never venture past your existing achievements. You hear someone from high school is getting married and assume that you never will. You discover the guy you worked retail with in 2006 has a new apartment, and you sit wherever you happen to live and actively resent the space you loved five minutes ago. And feelings like will always come up; it’s just up to you to say “fuck off.” So, while I’d like to say you should just decide not to be jealous, and that we’re all in this together so let’s remember that and be best friends, I know that isn’t realistic because jealousy is immune to reason and logic…If I feel myself slipping into a jealousy wormhole when I see someone else shining, I remember that to gauge my self-worth based on someone else’s accomplishments is a one-way ticket to bitterness.”
