Some people look for a beautiful place, others make a place beautiful.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
… I mesta na kojima nikada nisi bio, ali kao da su čekala tvoje korake…
Jer svemir prepoznaje ritam tvoje duše,
i sve što je tvoje dolazi u onom trenutku kada skineš okove straha
i smelo zakoračiš da postanes ono što jesi.
Marina Tsvetaeva,

Мило биће моје,
Ћутим данима већ неке најлепше речи за тебе и никад не будем задовољан. А убедио сам себе, кад бих успео тако нешто, да бих одмах задовољио сва чула, и чуло слободе, ако ми га нађу.
Жарко Лаушевић
“The serpent is the earthly essence of man of which he is not conscious. Its character changes according to peoples and lands, since it is the mystery that flows to him from the nourishing earth-mother. The earthly (numen loci) separates forethinking and pleasure in man, but not in itself. The serpent has the weight of the earth in itself but also its changeability and germination from which everything that becomes emerges.”

“But this dark is deep: now I warm you with my blood,
listen to this flesh. It is far truer than poems.”
Marina Tsvetaeva, “Poems of the End”
“Except for your eyes, no blade can control me,
no sharpened knife.”
Vladimir Mayakovsky, Lilichka! tr. by Andrey Kneller
My soul has become aquatic and lunar; it is all coolness and brightness, and I live as if my soul were moon and water put under glass.
Georges Rodenbach, 1882
Sometimes you find your path, sometimes it finds you.

If speaking kindly to plants can help them grow, just imagine what speaking kindly to humans can do.
