“THAT crazed girl improvising her music.
Her poetry, dancing upon the shore,

Her soul in division from itself
Climbing, falling She knew not where,
Hiding amid the cargo of a steamship,
Her knee-cap broken, that girl I declare
A beautiful lofty thing, or a thing
Heroically lost, heroically found.

No matter what disaster occurred
She stood in desperate music wound,
Wound, wound, and she made in her triumph
Where the bales and the baskets lay
No common intelligible sound
But sang, 'O sea-starved, hungry sea”
― William Butler Yeats, The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats

His eyes widen.
He lunged at me.

the
whole
way
down,
I
was
only
thinking
one
thing ...Lena”

“„В читалнята сравнявах увлеченото й четене с въодушевлението и самозабравата на истинската работа, на физическия труд. Сега напротив, тя носи водата, сякаш чете, леко, без усилие. Тази плавност й е присъща във всичко. Сякаш още отдавна, в детството, е набрала нужната сила и сега всичко й върви от само себе си по инерция, с лекотата на вече произтичащото следствие. Това се чувствува и в очертанието на гръбнака й, когато се навежда, и в усмивката, която отваря устните й и закръгля брадичката, и в нейните думи и мисли.”
― Boris Pasternak, Doctor Zhivago

“This world is truly extraordinary, filled with a captivating mix of people and things that possess both good and bad qualities. The erratic and unpredictable nature of this world is what makes it so appealing and interesting, as it is full of both the crazy and cruel, as well as the lovely and kind. It is alluring in its ability to mystify us time and again, and evoke within us the power of emotion, be it joy, pain, or something in between. It is a world I am proud to take part in, and so I love it dearly.”
― Jonathan Harnisch, Sex, Drugs, and Schizophrenia
