Additional quotes by Elif Şafak

لا يعنى الصبر أن تتحمل المصاعب سلبا، يل يعنى أن تكون بعيد النظر بحيث تثق بالنتيجة النهائية التي ستتمخض عن أي عملية.
ماذا يعني الصبر؟ إنه يعني أن تنظر إلى الشوكة وترى الوردة، أن تنظر إلى الليل وترى الفجر. أما نفاد الصبر فيعنى أن تكون قصير النظر ولا تتمكن من رؤية النتيجة.
إن عشاق الله لاينفد صبرهم مطلقا، لأنهم يعرفون أنه لكى يصبح الهلال بدرا، فهو يحتاج إلى وقت

Because in real life, unlike in history books, stories come to us not in their entirety but in bits and pieces, broken segments and partial echoes, a full sentence here, a fragment there, a clue hidden in between. in life, unlike in books, we have to weave our stories out of threads as fine as the gossamer veins that run through a butterfly's wings.
