“I should be suspicious of what I want.” Rumi
“The goals we pursue are always veiled. A girl who longs for marriage longs for something she knows nothing about. The boy who hankers after fame has no idea what fame is. The thing that gives our every move its meaning is always totally unknown to us.” Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being
