The universe is one being. Everything and everyone is interconnected through an invisible web of stories. Whether we are aware of it or not, we are all in a silent conversation. Do no harm. Practise compassion. And do not gossip behind anyone's back - not even seemingly innocent remark! The words that come out of our mouth do not vanish but are perpetually stored in infinite space, and they will come back to us in due time. One man's pain will hurt us all. One man's joy will make everyone smile.

Additional quotes by Elif Şafak

It is a map, the body of an ex-lover, pulling you into its depths and bringing you back to a part of yourself that you thought had been left behind sometime, somewhere. It is a mirror too, though, chipped and cracked, showing all the ways you have changed; and, like every mirror, it dreams of becoming whole again.

الله. تنهدت، إنك أقرب إلي من حبل وريدي. ساعدني على الخروج من هذه المحنة. أن تمنحني نعمة الجهل، أو أن تمنحني القوة لأتحمل المعرفة. أي شيء تختاره سيرضيني، لكن أرجوك لا تجعلني ضعيفة وعارفة في الوقت نفسه.
