“Hepimizin hayalleri vardir. Ama hayalleri gerceklestirmek; kararlilik, ozveri, disiplin ve cokca caba gerektirir.”

“Onemli savaslar altin madalyalar icin verilmez. Esas onemli olanlar, kendi icimizde savastigimiz gorunmez zorluklardir.”

Ulusal edebiyatta, disavurumcu hareketin onderlerinden Rus oyun ve kisa hikaye yazari Leonid Nikolayevic Andreyev’in olum yildonumu (12 Eylul 1919)
“Belki hayatinda ilk defa kapi gicirdamasina benzeyen budala, manasiz ama cok neseli bir kahkaha atti. Tipki bir kazin bagirtisi gibi: ‘Ga-ga-ga!’ Gardiyan ona hayretle bakti, sonra kaslarini catti. Asilacak olan adamin bu budalaca nesesi hapishaneye idama bile bir hakaretti. Idami da hapishaneyi de acayip, laubali bir hale sokuyordu. Ve durup dururken kisacik bir an icin, hapishane nizamlarini doga kanunlari yerine koyan ihtiyar gardiyana, hapishanede gecirdigi butun omru bir timarhane gibi geldi. Kendisi de deliler arasinda en azgin deliymis gibi oldu.”

“And perhaps for the first time in his life he laughed, a hoarse, absurd, yet gay and joyous laughter. It sounded like the cackling of a goose, ‘Ga-ga-ga!’ The warden looked at him in astonishment, then knit his brow sternly. This strange gayety of a man who was to be executed was an offence to the prison, as well as to the very executioner; it made them appear absurd. And suddenly, for the briefest instant, it appeared to the old warden, who had passed all his life in the prison, and who looked upon its laws as the laws of nature, that the prison and all the life within it was something like an insane asylum, in which he, the warden, was the chief lunatic.”
“Ayaga firladi ve tam bir saat soluk almadan ana avrat sovdu, kufurler savurdu.
Yuzu tebesir gibi bembeyaz olmus nobetci er, bunalip korkudan aglayarak tufegin namlusu ile kapiyi durtuyor, ne yapacagini sasirarak ikide bir bagiriyordu:
‘Vuracagim! Vallahi de vuracagim, billahi de vuracagim! Duyuyon mu?’
Ama ates etmiyordu, edemezdi de. Hapishanede isyan cikmadikca idama mahkum edilmis olanlara ates etmek yasakti. Cingene ise dislerini gicirdatiyor, kufur ediyor, tukuruyordu. Insan beyni olum ile dirim arasindaki anlatilamayacak kesinlikte bir sinirda olmasina dayanamiyor ve ruzgarin kuruttugu bir kil topragi gibi bin parca oluyordu.”

“Then he would jump up and for a whole hour would curse continually. He cursed picturesquely, shouting and rolling his blood-shot eyes.’If you hang me-hang me!’ and he would burst out cursing again.
And the sentinel, in the meantime white as chalk, weeping with painand fright, would knock at the door with the butt-end of the gun andcry helplessly:
‘I’ll fire! I’ll kill you as sure as I live! Do you hear?’
But he dared not shoot. If there was no actual rebellion they neverfired at those who had been condemned to death. And Tsiganok would gnash his teeth, would curse and spit. His brain thus racked on a monstrously sharp blade between life and death was falling to pieceslike a lump of dry clay.”

Bilim kurgu turunun en taninmis yazarlarindan, Solaris’in yaraticisi, Ukrayna dogumlu Polonyali felsefe - hiciv yazari, ve doktor Stanisław Lem’in dogum yildonumu (12 Eylul 1921)
“Kozmosa cikiyoruz, her seye haziriz: Yalnizliga, zorluga, tukenise, olume haziriz. Alcak gonullulukten soylemeye dilimiz varmiyor ama, kendimize hayran hayran baktigimiz oluyor. Ama cok, cok yazik! Birazcik yakindan baktigimizda butun o sevkin aslinda duzmece oldugunu goruyoruz. Aslinda kozmosu ele gecirmek degil istedigimiz, yalnizca Yer’in sinirlarini kozmosun sinirlarina dek genisletmek filanca gezegen bizim gozumuzde Buyuk Sahra gibi kirac, oteki Kuzey Kutbu gibi buz tutmus, baskasi Amazon Havzasi kadar bereketli olsa olsa. Insansever ve sovalye ruhluyuz: Baska soylari kolelestirmek degil niyetimiz, onlara kendi degerlerimizi miras birakmak, karsiliginda da onlarin mirasini devralmak istiyoruz. Kutsal Baglanti’nin Savascilari sayiyoruz kendimizi. Bu da bir baska yalan! Yalnizca Insan’i ariyoruz biz, baska dunyalara gereksinimimiz yok. Ayna gerek bize. Baska dunyalari ne yapacagimizi da bilmiyoruz. Tek bir dunya, kendi dunyamiz, yetiyor bize. Ama oldugu gibi de kabul edemiyoruz onu. Kendi dunyamizin ulkusel bir imgesi pesinde kosup duruyoruz hep: Bizimkinden ustun bir gezegen, ustun bir uygarlik ariyoruz, ama kendi gecmisimizin prototipi uzerinde gelismis olsun istiyoruz. Ve ayni zamanda yuzyuze gelmek istemedigimiz, kendimizi sakinmaya calistigimiz bir sey var icimizde. Ama o hep icimizde kaliyor, cunku Yer’den yola cikarken bir ilk gunahsizlik durumunda degiliz. Gerceklikte nasilsak buraya oyle geliyoruz, sayfa cevrilip de gozlerimizin onune serilince gerceklik -kendi gercekligimizin sessizce gecistirmeyi yegledigimiz yani yani- artik sevmiyoruz onu.”

“We take off into the cosmos, ready for anything: for solitude, for hardship, for exhaustion, death. Modesty forbids us to say so, but there are times when we think pretty well of ourselves. And yet, if we examine it more closely, our enthusiasm turns out to be all a sham. We don't want to conquer the cosmos, we simply want to extend the boundaries of Earth to the frontiers of the cosmos. For us, such and such a planet is as arid as the Sahara, another as frozen as the North Pole, yet another as lush as the Amazon basin. We are humanitarian and chivalrous; we don't want to enslave other races, we simply want to bequeath them our values and take over their heritage in exchange. We think of ourselves as the Knights of the Holy Contact. This is another lie. We are only seeking Man. We have no need of other worlds. A single world, our own, suffices us; but we can't accept it for what it is. We are searching for an ideal image of our own world: we go in quest of a planet, a civilization superior to our own but developed on the basis of a prototype of our primeval past. At the same time, there is something inside us which we don't like to face up to, from which we try to protect ourselves, but which nevertheless remains, since we don't leave Earth in a state of primal innocence. We arrive here as we are in reality, and when the page is turned and that reality is revealed to us - that part of our reality which we would prefer to pass over in silence - then we don't like it anymore.”

Dedim ki ruhuma, sakin ol, ve umutsuz bekle
Cunku umut yanlis sey icin umut olabilir; asksiz bekle,
Cunku ask yanlis sey icin ask olabilir; gerci inanc vardir

I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love
For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
