به خویشتن بقبولان که تنها خداست که موقتی نیست! - André Gide

If this was happiness, I know that I wanted to hold it like one wants in vain to hold running water in joined hands. But I was already feeling alongside this happiness something other than happiness which was covering my love like the coloring of autumn.

On ne peut être à la fois sincère et le paraître.
