Zaman geçsin diye bekle, zamanı gelsin diye bekle…
Anlatmak için bekle, anlaşılmak için bekle…
Bulmak için bekle, bulunmak için bekle, buluşmak için bekle…
Başlasın diye bekle, bitsin diye bekle…
Sabahı bekle, geceyi bekle, baharı bekle, yazı bekle, yarını bekle, yeni yılı bekle…
Daha iyisi için bekle, daha yenisini bekle…
Sabırdan bekle, çaresizlikten bekle, panikle bekle, vazgeçerken bekle…
Plan yap bekle, hayal kur bekle…
Değişsin diye bekle, dönüşsün diye bekle…
Bir bekle, iki bekle…
Hayat geçsin önünden geçip gitsin,
Sen bekle…¡

Writers remember everything…especially the hurts. Strip a writer to the buff, point to the scars, and he’ll tell you the story of each small one. From the big ones you get novels— misery by stephen king.
Selene Thrown Down by Argus (painting), 1886.
by Ferdinand Keller.
The Suicide of Cato (painting), 1692

“Authority has every reason to fear the skeptic, for authority can rarely survive in the face of doubt.”
Vita Sackville-West, Discovered Quotes
“I saw myself sitting in the crotch of this fig tree, starving to death, just because I couldn’t make up my mind which of the figs I would choose. I wanted each and every one of them, but choosing one meant losing all the rest, and, as I sat there, unable to decide, the figs began to wrinkle and go black, and, one by one, they plopped to the ground at my feet.”
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar(1961).
The Penitent Magdalene (painting), 1630
by Francesco Lupicini.
Two People: The Lonely Ones (drawing),1895
by Edvard Munch.

“Oh, the terrible struggle that I have had against sleep so often of late; the pain of the sleeplessness, or the pain of the fear of sleep, and with such unknown horror as it has for me! How blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads; to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly, and brings nothing but sweet dreams.”
Bram Stoker, Dracula (1897).
“I believe in some blending of hope and sunshine sweetening the worst lots. I believe that this life is not all; neither the beginning nor the end. I believe while I tremble; I trust while I weep.”
Charlotte Brontë, Villette(1853).

THE REVIEW: If Cats Disappeared From The World
Imagine you have just been diagnosed with an incurable disease and you have hardly any time left on this here planet. You arrive home and see the devil himself sitting on your sofa. Don’t ask me how you know it is the devil, forget about whether or not you even believe in the devil. He is there, petting your cat and beckoning you to join him.
That is where this story beings. And you will (I hope)…
I told you to hide your heart once. You should have listened.
