وجَلس حزنِي تِجاهي تأملني قليلآ، ثم أجهش الحزن بالبكاء ، وبَقيت صامتة

And my sorrow sat next to me, stared at me for a while,then it burst into tears and I remained silent.

To Live - Yu Hua

Quotes that I really liked and felt the need to underline:

"All it took was a word from the higher-ups and we'd all think and do whatever they wanted."

"You still owe us a life, hold on to your life to repay us."

"No matter how lucky a person is, the moment he decides he wants to die, there's nothing that will keep him alive."

"No matter how many hardships and difficulties people face in life, they always find a way to console themselves when they get close to death."

"If you go on striving for this and that, you’ll end up paying with your life."

"I thought it must be terrible to be an ox. All their lives they're driven to the point of exhaustion for the work of man, and as soon as they get old and their energy starts to go they get sent off to be slaughteted and eaten."

"My memories of Fengxia are my only happiness."

Not a specific time period but I like learning about wars throughout history.

The first person that comes to my mind is the little prince lol. I read its book at least once every year and it feels different each time.

A fresh brew.

Libraries.

The (500) Days of Summer soundtrack, it's lovely.

A cottage on the top of a mountain with an old, huge, and shady tree right beside it OR a mansion that I design myself and it has a huge garden and an art studio in the backyard.

Talking with my friend and sleeping.

Films: About Time, Her, Midnight in Paris. Books: Fesleğen by Hikmet Anıl Öztekin, A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini, The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

No.

I haven't read much, I will update this later in my life.

Not sure.

I dont like either.

Not sure, all my life I have lived in placed with only 1 or 2 seasons.

I think I should be reading more poetry, I like it but I dont have a strong opinion on it at the moment.

Texting; no, emails; depends on who I am emailing.

I only put 50 songs in each playlist as I discover them, when there is 50 songs in a playlist, I create another one. Sometimes it takes months to reach 50, and sometimes only a couple of weeks. When I listen to my old playlist I can see how ı was back then.

Khaled Hosseini and Dan Brown.

Hot chocolate.

Meadows, I guess.

Mulberry.

i always forget how addicting it feels to read a book and not want to put it down. it happens every time; i should know it by now, should know that i'm going to spend the rest of forever chasing that high, feeling it every time i read a new page or crack a new paperback spine or read a new dedication, but it’s always a pleasant surprise. i think we all know it, right? one more chapter before bed, one more chapter after that, so on and so forth. we all know that the inevitable will happen and we all know we'll will be sucked into the story for the foreseeable future, but we never plan for it. we never schedule it. it's a spontaneous familiarity, like knowing exactly what the crack of lightning looks like across the night sky but still watching through the window in a midnight storm. it's everything i could ever want and it's all that i have at the same time.

The Alchemist

Quotes that I really liked and felt the need to underline:

"When a person really desires something, all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream."

"It's not what enters men's mouth that's evil, it's what comes out of their mouth that is."

"Wherever your heart is, that's where you will find your treasure."

"I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you."

"Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself."

"All people who are happy have God within them, and that happiness could be found in a grain of sand from the desert. Because a grain of sand is a moment of creation, and the universe has taken millions of years tı create it."

"Every search begins with beginner's luck. And every search ends with the victor's being severely tested."

"Why don't people's hearts tell them to continue to follow their dreams?" The boy asked the alchemist.

"Because that's what makes a heart suffer most, and hearts don't like to suffer."
