No one comes back from the dead, no one has entered the world without crying; no one is asked when he wishes to enter life, nor when he wishes to leave.

فى داخلى شرفة لا يمر بها احد للتحية
فى خارجى عالم لا يرد التحية

I have not asked for life.
But I try to accept whatever
life brings without surprise.
And I shall depart again without having
questioned anyone about my strange
stay here on earth.

Superior people never make long visits.

But nobody did come, because nobody does;

"How do you know that?"
"I followed you."
"I saw no one."
"That is what you may expect to see when I follow you."

But no one came. Because no one ever does.

What’s the point of being the first to arrive? Nobody is there to witness your commitment.

My wife was on a visit to her aunt's, and for a few days I was a dweller once more in my old quarters at Baker Street.
'Why,' said I, glancing up at my companion, 'that was surely the bell? Who could come tonight? Some friend of yours, perhaps?'
'Except yourself I have none,' he answered. 'I do not encourage visitors.

I do not want anyone to get close to me, I do not want anyone to see me, and this is the way things have developed: no one gets close and no one sees me.

Bu dünyada tamamen yalnızım, çünkü hiçbir tarafın adamı olmadım ve Tanrı aklımı almadığı sürece de olmayacağım.

We live on just in the same way, having very few visitors, and receiving them in the quietest of hospitalities.

Nobody speaks to me. People fall in love with me, and annoy me and distress me and flatter me and excite me and — and all that sort of thing. But no one speaks to me. I sometimes think that no one can. Can you?

A speaker of truth has no friends.
