We humans, as a whole, are no better off than this 50-year-old hunter-gatherer. As individuals we are, of course, born and raised in a technological world, and so we think we can adapt. But our physical and mental selves are really locked in the past. We try to hide this past with fancy clothes and sophisticated language, and we arm ourselves with all varieties of clever technological aids. But our ancient hunter-gatherer selves are still there, deep inside, struggling to make sense of the world.

Gönülde mi, hayalde mi
Nasıl doğar, neyle beslenir."

Love is not about sex, going on fancy dates, or showing off. It’s about being with a person who makes you happy in a way nobody else can.
Then this ebony bird beguiling
My sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum
Of the countenance it wore,
Though thy crest be shorn and shaven,
Thou, I said, art sure no craven,
Ghastly, grim and ancient Raven
Wandering from the Nightly shore
Tell me what thy lordly name is
On the Night's Plutonian shore!
Quoth the Raven, ''Nevermore.''
~ Herkes aşık olunca acı çekiyor, iç geçiriyor, gözyaşı döküyor ve zavallı hayallerin peşine düşüyor madem, bizim elimizden de bir şey gelmez. Gerçek aşıklar bu acıları çekmeye mahkumlar madem, o zaman biz de birbirimize sabırlı olmayı öğretelim.
~ If, then, true lovers have been ever crost,
It stands as an edict in destiny:
Then let us teach our trial patience,
Because it is a customary cross,
As due to love as thoughts, and dreams, and sighs,
Wishes, and tears, poor fancy's followers.

''It was a freak of fancy in my friend (for what else shall I call it?) to be enamored of the Night for her own sake; and into this bizarrerie, as into all his others, I guietly fell; giving myself up to his wild whims with a perfect abandon.''
Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
"Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou," I said, "art sure no craven,
Ghastly grim and ancient Raven wandering from the Nightly shore
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!"
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
more of our waking life than we should care to admit, even to ourselves, is likely to be whiled away in this inconsequential trifling with idle fancy and unsubstantial hope.

Juliet hiç hapşırmış mıydı? Peki, Fancy Portia'nın elleri ve ayakları soğuktan şişmiş miydi? Truvalı Helen'i hıçkırık tutmuş muydu? Ya da Kleopatra'da nasır var mıydı?!

“True self-confidence is “the courage to be open—to welcome change and new ideas regardless of their source.” Real self-confidence is not reflected in a title, an expensive suit, a fancy car, or a series of acquisitions. It is reflected in your mindset: your readiness to grow.”
