" Maybe it’s better to adhere to the standards of heaven than to those of this world. Failure doesn’t upset you, since you can always rely on eternity; you find your justifications in reasons beyond yourself. Personal loss is less important. And pain. And men. And the present day. Everything continues into eternity, faceless and vast, sleepily torpid and solemnly indifferent. Like the sea: it cannot lament the innumerable deaths that continually occur in it. "

― Meša Selimović , Death and the Dervish
