Ingiliz sair, cevirmen, akademisyen ve illustrator Charles Tomlinson’in dogum yildonumu (8 Ocak 1927)



Biliyorum
biliyorum ki bu gul
murekkep ve kagittan bir gul sadece
nasil da buyuyup gitmede ama
gelisip serpilmede gozunun onunde
oyle degil mi
cicek acmis bir gul
gelmis (neredeyse) yesillik saati
iste o sirada
benim uzay gulum, tipografya
diledikce cikiverir ortaya
(dilek senin)
her yinelediginde
bu gorsel soleni
sil bastan baslaya baslaya
ogreneceksin
nasilini nedenini

Rus roman yazari, sair, teorisyen ve edebi elestirmen (Boris Nikolaevich Bugaev) Andrei Bely'nin olum yildonumu (8 Ocak 1934)

"Ve sirtini dondu.

Nikolay Apollonovic kendini birakmis agliyordu; ayni zamanda: Nikolay Apollonovic kaba, hayvansi korkudan kurtulunca, tumuyle korkusuz olmustu, ve dahasi: o anda hatta aci cekmek istiyordu. Hisleriyse parcalanmisti, 'ben'i parcalandigi gibi; 'ben'i parcalanmasindansa kor edici bir mesale ve samimi bir ses oradan ona seslenecek, her zaman oldugu gibi, onun kendisinde seslenecek: onun kendisi icin:

'Benim icin aci cektin: uzerinde duruyorum...'

Ama bir ses yoktu. Mesale de yoktu. Karanlik vardi. Sakinlestirici ses niye yoktu: 'Sen benim icin aci cektin?' Cunku o kimse icin aci cekmemisti: kendisi icin aci cekmisti, deyim yerindeyse, kendisinin karistigi cirkin olaylar karmasasi yoluna girmisti. Bu yuzden de ses yoktu. Mesale de yoktu. Once 'ben'i yerinde karanlik vardi.

Dondu: agliyordu."



"And he turned away. Nikolai Apollonovich wept unrestrainedly. And Nikolai Apollonovich, now feed from raw fear, became utterly fearless. He wanted to suffer. His feeling had been torn apart, as his 'I'� had been torn apart. And out of his exploded 'I'� (he was awaiting it) would spurt a blinding torch, and out of there a familiar voice would say unto him, as it always did, would say within him, for him alone:

"You have suffered for me: I am standing over you."

But there was no voice. There was no torch. There was darkness. But why was there no reassuring voice saying:'You have suffered for me?' Because he had not suffered for anyone: he had suffered for himself. He, so to speak, was trying to get himself out of the mess of hideous events that he himself had cooked up. That was why there was no voice. In place of the former 'I'� there was darkness.

He turned away. He wept."

Ingiliz fizikci, evrenbilimci, astronom, teorisyen ve yazar Stephen William Hawking’in dogum gunu (8 Ocak 1942)

“Birkac yil once Italya, Monza'da belediye meclisi Japon baliklarinin yuvarlak akvaryumlarda tutulmasini yasakladi. Yapilan aciklamaya gore baligi yuvarlak kenarli bir akvaryumda tutmak zalimlikti, cunku yuvarlak cam baliga bozulmus bir gerceklik goruntusu sunuyordu. Peki, biz gercekligin dogru ve bozulmamis resmine bakip bakmadigimizi nereden bilecegiz? Biz de gorusumuzu bozan dev bir yuvarlak akvaryumun icinde olabilir miyiz? Japon baliginin gerceklik algisi bizimkinden farklidir ama bizimkinin daha gercek oldugundan emin miyiz?”



“A few years ago, the city council of Monza, Italy, barred pet owners from keeping goldfish in curved fishbowls. The sponsors of the measure explained that it is cruel to keep a fish in a bowl because the curved sides give the fish a distorted view of reality. Aside from the measure’s significance to the poor goldfish, the story raises an interesting philosophical question: How do we know that the reality we perceive is true?”

Ingiliz yazar (Violet Mary Firth Evans) Dion Fortune'in olum yildonumu (8 Ocak 1946)

“Eski Yunan sisteminde en yuksek gelisim asamasina sahip kadinlar, nadiren cocuk doguruyordu cunku cokesli olma aliskanligina sahip kadinlar genelde kisirdi. Ayrica, yalnizca dogurganliklarindan oturu takdir goren bu ulkedeki anneler, kisilik ya da zihinsel gelisimleri acisindan cok az egitim gormuslerdi. Dolayisiyla, kendileri egitimsiz olduklari icin cocuklarini egitme niteligine sahip degillerdi. Gunumuzde genelde, erken cocukluk doneminin kisiligin olusumunda son derece etkin oldugu kabul edilmektedir, bilgisiz ve deneyimsiz kadinlarin kendi sinirli yapilarini asarak cocuklarina kendilerinin sahip olmadigi bir seyi vermesi mumkun gorunmemektedir. Turklerde, yonetici siniflar arasinda ulusal capta yuksek bir karakter standardi gelisiminin basarisizliga ugramasinin haremde yasayan annelerin cehaletinden kaynaklandigi soylenir. Oysa kadinlarini tecrit etmeye butcesi yetmeyen koylu cok daha iyi bir karakter gelistirmisti.” Ask ve Evliligin Ezoterik Felsefesi



"By the Greek system women of the highest evolution seldom gave children to the race, for the women of promiscuous habits are usually sterile. Moreover, the mothers of the nation, prized only for fecundity, were given little culture of either character or intellect, and were, therefore, unfitted for the training of their children, being themselves untrained. It is generally agreed nowadays that the influences of early childhood are extremely important in character building, and that ignorant and inexperienced women cannot transcend their own natures and give to their children what they do not themselves possess. It is said that the failure of the Turkish nation to evolve a high standard of national character among its ruling classes is due to the backwardness of its harem-dwelling mothers, whereas the peasantry, who cannot afford to seclude their woman, are of much better typr of character."



“Dikkat dagildigida, soz konusu gucun yonu de bununla birlikte dagilacaktir. Buyuk okult icin bir kuvvetin kullanilmasi tipki yuksek gucte bir otomobilin yuksek bir hizda kullanilmasina benzer. Her sey kontrole baglidir; bunun icin yeterli kuvvete sahip oldugunuz surece, ayaginiz uzerine basarsiniz. Sayisiz insan guclerin davet edilmesini deneyimleyebilir fakat pek azi kendi sinirlarinin otesine gecmeden bunlarin gercek dogasini fark edebilir.”



"If attention waver, the direction of the power will waver with it.To use a big occult potency is like driving a high-powered car at a high speed, all depends on the control; unless you have nerve for it, you are safer on your feet. Many people experiment in the invocation offerces, but few are aware of their reality until they find themselves out of their depth."
