Text Quotes
Fret not where the road will take you. Instead concentrate on the first step. That’s the hardest part and that’s what you are responsible for. Once you take that step let everything do what it naturally does and the rest will follow. Do not go with the flow. Be the flow (Elif Safak Quotes)
How can love be worthy of its name if one selects solely the pretty things and leaves out the hardships? It is easy to enjoy the good and dislike the bad. Anybody can do that. The real challenge is to love the good and the bad together, not because you need to take the rough with the smooth but because you need to go beyond such descriptions and accept love in its entirety (Elif Safak Quotes)
Every true love and friendship is a story of unexpected transformation. If we are the same person before and after we loved, that means we haven’t loved enough (Elif Safak Quotes)
I slept peacefully that night, feeling exultant and determined. Little did I know that I was making the most common and the most painful mistake women have made all throughout the ages: to naively think that with their love they can change the man they love (Elif Safak Quotes)
What i’m saying is, my friends, one ought to be able to let go. If a path does not please us, instead of insisting on going that specific way, of making our selfishness the guide, we ought to forsake. The books we cannot write, the films we cannot shoot, the projects we cannot develop, the jobs we cannot pursue and the people who no longer love us. Being able to let go, at times, is the most beautiful of all! (Elif Safak Quotes)
The words that come out of our mouths do not vanish but are perpetually stored in infinite space, and they will come back to us in due time (Elif Safak Quotes)
The world does not move through time as if it were a straight line, proceeding from the past to the future. Instead time moves through and within us, in endless spirals. Eternity does not mean infinite time, but simply timelessness (Elif Safak Quotes)
Perhaps this is why lunatics have a harder time dating, not because they are off the wall but because it is hard to find soemone who is willing to date so many people in one person (Elif Safak Quotes)
Because time is a drop in the ocean, and you cannot measure off one drop against another to see which one is bigger, which one is smaller (Elif Safak Quotes)
Isn’t connecting people to distant lands and culture one of the strengths of good literature? (Elif Safak Quotes)
While the parts change, the whole always remains the same. For every thief who departs this world, a new one is born. And every decent person who passes away is replaced by a new one. In this way not only does nothing remain the same but also nothing ever really changes (Elif Safak Quotes)
What is the point of roaming the world when it’s the same misery everywhere? (Elif Safak Quotes)
Most of the problems of the world stems from linguistic mistakes and simple misunderstandings. Don’t ever take words at face value. When you step into the zone of love, language as we know it becomes obsolete. That which cannot be put into words can only be grasped through silence (Elif Safak Quotes)
Cities are erected on spiritual columns. Like giant mirrors, they reflect the hearts of their residents. If those hearts darken and lose faith, cities will lose their glamour (Elif Safak Quotes)
Either grant me the bliss of the ignorant or give me the strength to bear the knowledge (Elif Safak Quotes)
We cannot abandon this rabbit hole for fear of a traumatic encounter with our own culture (Elif Safak Quotes)
How can you blame others for disrespecting you when you think of yourself as unworthy of respect? (Elif Safak Quotes)
Time is just an illusion. What you need is to live this very moment. That is all that matters (Elif Safak Quotes)
I hunt everywhere for a life worth living and a knowledge worth knowing. Having roots nowhere, I have everywhere to go (Elif Safak Quotes)
God is busy with the completion of your work, both outwardly and inwardly. He is fully occupied with you. Every human being is a work in progress that is slowly but inexplicably moving toward perfection. We are each an unfinished work of art both waiting and striving to be completed. God deals with each of us separately because humanity is a fine art of skilled penmanship where every single dot is equally important for the entire picture (Elif Safak Quotes)
The child had indeed shut up but all the questions that had accumulated on his tongue circulated in his mouth, moved through the passages of his nose and climbed up from there to tickle into his teardrop ducts, so in his moss green pupils, curious, insistent, accusing sparks of questions continued to light up and fade away like fireflies flitting about on summer nights (Elif Safak Quotes)
If you want to change the way others treat you, you should first change the way you treat yourself. Unless you learn to love yourself, fully and sincerely, there is no way you can be loved. Once you achieve that stage, however, be thankful for every thorn that others might throw at you. It is a sign that you will soon be showered in roses (Elif Safak Quotes)
Stories cannot demolish frontiers, but they can punch holes in our mental walls, and through those holes we can get a glimpse of the other and sometimes even like what we see (Elif Safak Quotes)
