Гоце Смилевски QUOTES

2 " There is no justice in this world. No single punishment can correct an injustice, because what is past cannot be changed, and those to whom injustice was done remain with their loss. But even if justice were attained in some other world, for what was lost in this one, if in some other world those who had been injured had returned to them what they had lost here, that is not a return of their life’s fulfillment; it is only consolation. What is lost at a certain moment can never again be compensated, because what is lost was needed at the moment it disappeared. "

4 " You have not done any evil. You neglected to do a good thing; in our lifetime, all of us neglect to do many good things. And we cannot measure which lapse will allow evil to swallow someone. "

― Гоце Смилевски , Freud's Sister

6 " You must understand that those who are mad, wherever they are, feel imprisoned; perhaps the first step toward madness is the feeling that the world is a prison. The world, with its laws -- I am thinking not solely of societal laws but of natural ones as well -- is experienced as a prison; perhaps this is what leads to the creation of one's own world, with one's own laws, yet the feeling of imprisonment remains forever. "

8 " We were at an age of innocence when, through touch and sound, taste and smell and sight, once could sense things beyond the surface, when it seemed to use that blood flowed even through inanimate objects. We were at an age when we could not foresee that one day our senses would convince us only of our captivity in space and time, and not lead us to an awareness of somthing beyond. We were at an age of innocence when the soul is still soft clay and does not know that one day it will turn to stone or barren earth; we were at an age when the soul is clay that can easily be warmed by a kindred spirit, when it is possible for two to become one. We were at an age of innocence when a shy look and a secretly expressed longing make our souls erupt under the delicate and tender wrap of our bodies, an age when the soul and the body are still bound into one, an age when excitement does not know it will someday turn into indifference or to a simple urge to satisfy bodily needs, and that when one manages to infuse oneself with passion there is neither the capability nor the desire to turn that moment of pleasure into a brief eternity. "

10 " Moj brat je u pravu kad kaže da je seksualnost put prema oslobođenju, ali problem je u tome što pogrešno razumije i seksualnost i slobodu. A seksualnost je doista sloboda, i otuda strah društva da će oslobođenje te sile srušiti hijerarhije i sustave koji ga podržavaju, a time će se raspasti i samo društvo onakvo kakvo je danas. Zato se ono trudi da seksualnost bude obavijena neiskrenošću i hipokrizijom. "

12 " Претчувствував дека доаѓа смртта, но не мислев на неа, бидејќи последно нешто на кое мисли слободниот човек е смртта. "

14 " Svi normalni ljudi normalni su na isti način, svaki ludi čovjek lud je na svoj način. "

16 " ...she repeated this as a sort of solace, as when a child repeats a lie, not to believe it through constant repetition but in order not to think about the truth. "

18 " That which a human being receives but once -- his life -- he destroys by his madness, because even though he lives it, he lives it to no constructive end. "

20 " Throughout my life I felt I was lacking something, the way the Venus de Milo lacks arms. I lacked nothing in my outer appearance but something inside me, as if the arms of my soul were lacking, and that absence, that lack, that feeling of emptiness, made me helpless. "
