Gita Swasti

“Dunia tengah berangkat gila, dan di zaman ini hanya orang gila yang berkeinginan mengubah atau menyelamatkan dunia. Seandainya tiap manusia cukup rendah hati untuk menyelamatkan sebuah dunianya terlebih dulu

(Cala Ibi, h.151)”
― Nukila Amal

“He misses the feeling of creating something out of something. That’s right — something out of something. Because something out of nothing is when you make something up out of thin air, in which case it has no value. Anybody can do that. But something out of something means it was really there the whole time, inside you, and you discover it as part of something new, that’s never happened before.”
― Etgar Keret, פתאום דפיקה בדלת

“I want to see you.

Know your voice.

Recognize you when you
first come 'round the corner.

Sense your scent when I come
into a room you've just left.

Know the lift of your heel,
the glide of your foot.

Become familiar with the way
you purse your lips
then let them part,
just the slightest bit,
when I lean in to your space
and kiss you.

I want to know the joy
of how you whisper
"more”
― Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi

“He's a better person when she's around, and isn't that what friends are for, to raise you up and keep you at your best?”
