Additional quotes by Nâzım Hikmet
Don’t live in the world as if you were renting
Or here only for the summer,
But act as if it were your father’s house.
Believe in seeds, earth, the sea
But people above all.
Grieve for the withering branch,
The dying star,
And the hurt animal.
But feel for people above all.
Rejoice in all the earth’s blessings –
Darkness and light,
The four seasons,
But people above all.
From Last letter to my son, as quoted in Nel cuore delle parole. Alla scoperta del gusto di comunicare
