Quotes from Mehmet Murat Ildan

On the road to wisdom, behave like a raven and observe everything carefully!

In dark days, your best shelter is your clever thoughts!

The wisdom of bridges comes from the fact that they know the both sides, they know the both shores!

The longer and the deeper the thought, the shorter the sentence of wisdom will be.

Let the purity and innocence of a child be your one and only religion!

If you live in a dirty big city, it means that you surely need a pastoral life to make yourself clean!

Bridge shortens the roads; wisdom does the same!

There are no crowds in the shores of wisdom!

The Empire of Wisdom is the only empire on which the sun never sets!

If your intelligence and your luck are on your side, you don't need angels!

In our unlucky times, it is a great comfort to think that luck favors only the bad guys or the dull!

Intellectual is a parrot; wise man is a crow. One is repetitive; other is creative!

Man is a parrot in the House of History; he listens and then he repeats the same crap over and over!

The footprints of a free-minded man are always towards the forward direction.

Only the paths that lead to nowhere, merely the storms that are violent, purely the dangerous forests make man a real man!

Everything is a slave of something else: Clouds, of the winds; men, of the desires; universe, of the chaos; shadows, of the light.

To have infinite oceanic horizons! This is what a man needs to reach the unreachable.

You cannot disgrace a disgraceful man; you cannot make a shameless man feel ashamed; you cannot make a cockroach a cockroach, because it is already a cockroach!

Spring blossoms are fairy tales, autumn leaves are tragic dramas.

Man is born dead and he remains dead till he attains wisdom! Wisdom is the only resurrection man can obtain!

Everywhere we see shadowy minds, cloudy brains! World needs more light of wisdom!

Wisdom is the highest position a man can attain!

No sublime wisdom asks to be worshipped or served; the greatest and the most honourable masters are those who refuse to have slaves!

Without living the most chaotic internal storms, you can't get the calmness of the wisdom! Wisdom is the child of the storm.
