“He was a Lannister of Casterly Rock, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard; no sellsword would make him scream.
Sunlight ran silver along the edge of the arakh as it came shivering down, almost too fast to see. And Jaime screamed.”
― George R. R. Martin, A Storm of Swords

“Tentative efforts lead to tentative outcomes. Therefore, give yourself fully to your endeavors. Decide to construct your character through excellent actions and determine to pay the price of a worthy goal. The trials you encounter will introduce you to your strengths. Remain steadfast...and one day you will build something that endures: something worthy of your potential.”
― Epictetus

“Rage - Goddess, sing the rage of Peleus' son Achilles, murderous, doomed, that cost the Achaeans countless losses, hurling down to the House of Death so many sturdy souls,
great fighters' souls, but made their bodies carrion, feasts for the dogs and birds”
― Homer

“Doğaya baktığın zmaan, kuşları dinlediğin zaman eğer bir şairin dinlemesiyle, gizemli bir kulakla dinlemezsen, 'kuş ötmüş' olur. Ve 'ağaçlar rüzgarda sallanıyor' olur. O kadar. Başka birşey göremezsin. Ama o gizemli kulakla dinlediğin andan itibaren de derin bir ilişki içerisinde olursun. [...] Kuşun her türlü özelliğini incelemiş bir bilim adamı, kuşu hiç de gizemli bir gözle göremeyebilir. Ama bu bilgiyi varoluşuyla özümseyerek, evrenin özüyle ilişkilendrerek sindirmişse, işte o zaman o bilgi gizemin temeli olur.”
― Doğan Cüceloğlu, İnsanı Ararken Damdan Düşen Psikolog
