“«Μια μέρα ο Αλλάχ βρέθηκε μπόσικος, έπιασε φωτιά και κοπριά κι έπλασε το Ρωμιό. Μα ευτύς, ως τον είδε, το μετάνιωσε. Είχε ένα μάτι ο αφιλότιμος που τρυπούσε ατσάλι. «Τι να γίνει τώρα, μουρμούρισε ο Αλλάχ, την έπαθα. Ας πιάσω να κάμω τώρα τον Τούρκο, να σφάξει το Ρωμιό, να βρει ο κόσμος την ησυχία του.» Και ευτύς, χωρίς να χασομεράει, βάνει σ’ ένα ταψί τον Τούρκο και το Ρωμιό να παλέψουν. Πάλευαν, πάλευαν ως το βράδυ, κανένας δεν έριχνε το κάτω τον άλλον Μα ευτύς, ως σκοτείνιασε, βάνει ο άτιμος Ρωμιός τρικλοποδιά, κάτω ο Τούρκος! « Ο διάολος θα με πάρει, μουρμούρισε ο Αλλάχ, την έπαθα πάλι. Τούτοι οι Ρωμιοί θα φάνε τον κόσμο, πάνε οι κόποι μου χαμένοι… Τι να κάμω;» Ολονύχτα δεν έκλεισε μάτι ο κακομοίρης, μα το πρωί, πετάχτηκε απάνω και χτύπησε τις χερούκλες του: «Βρήκα βρήκα» φώναξε. Έπιασε πάλι φωτιά και κοπριά, κι έφτιαξε έναν άλλο Ρωμιό, και ους έβαλε στο ταψί να παλέψουν. Άρχισε το πάλεμα. Τρικλοποδιά ο ένας, τρικλοποδιά κι ο άλλος. Μπηχτές ο ένας, μπηχτές κι ο άλλος. Μπαμπεσιά ο ένας, μπαμπεσιά κι ο άλλος… Πάλευαν, πάλευαν, έπεφταν, σηκώνουνταν, πάλευαν πάλι, ξανάπεφταν, ξανασηκώνουνταν, πάλευαν… Κι ακόμα παλεύουν! Κι έτσι ο κόσμος βρήκε την ησυχία του…!»”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, quote from Christ Recrucified

“الانسان وحش كاسر...انه يفعل مايختار. انه يسلك الطريق الذي يختاره لنفسه. امامه بوابه الجحيم وبوابه الفردوس متلاصقين, وهو يدخل ايهما يختار.. الشيطان لايدخل سوى النار , والملاك لايدخل سوى الفردوس . اما الانسان فأنه يدخل أيا منهما حسب اختياره”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, quote from Christ Recrucified

“ان الله لايتعجل ابدا.انه ساكن ,يرى المستقبل كأنه ماض, اذ انه يعمل في نطاق الابديه.المخلوقات الزائله التي لاتدري ماذا سيحدث غدا هي وحدها التي تتعجل بدافع من الخوف والقلق .دع الله يعمل في صمت , ولتكن مشيئته. لاترفع رأسك ولا تسأل. فكل سؤال خطيه”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, quote from Christ Recrucified

“آدم يعني همين: يعني موجودي زنده اي كه پا مي شود و توضيح مي خواهد.”

“اگر محمد ما و مسیح شما عرق خورده و مثل ما گیلاسهای خود را بهم زده بودند، هر دو با هم دوست صمیمی میشدند و در صدد برنمی آمدند که چشمهای یکدیگر را بکنند... ولی حیف که آنها عرق نمیخوردند و به همین جهت هر دو، دنیا را به خون کشیدند...”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, quote from Christ Recrucified

“عجبا لهذا الوجود! إنه معجزة حقا! إذا فتحت عينى أري الجبال والسحاب والمطر يساقط، وإذا أغمضت عينى أري الله خالق الجبال والسحاب والمطر ... حيثما نول وجوهنا فثم وجه الله .... فى ضوء النهار أو فى عتمة الليل.”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, quote from Christ Recrucified

“المياة التي تظل راكدة زمنا طويلا لابد وأن تفسد، وكذلك الروح تفسد اذا عاشت في دعة وسكون زمنا طويلا، فيرسل الله الريح التي تثير العاصفة فتحرك صفحة الماء وتبعث فيها الحياة من جديد وتدب الحياة في النفوس الميتة من جديد.”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, quote from Christ Recrucified

يجب أن نهتدي إلى فتاة يتيمة ليس لها من يذود عنها في القرية حتى نتجنب الفضيحة لا أخشى غير الفضيحة يا أغا ولا شيء سواها .. أمهلني يا أغا”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, quote from Christ Recrucified

About the author

Popular quotes

“Amy Martin (ladysky) and Daniel Baciagalupo had a month to spend on Charlotte Turner's island in Georgian Bay; it was their wilderness way of getting to know each other before their life together in Toronto began. We don't always have a choice how we get to know one another. Sometimes, people fall into our lives cleanly--as if out of the sky, or as if there were a direct flight from Heaven to Earth--the same sudden way we lose people, who once seemed they would always be part of our lives.
Little Joe was gone, but not a day passed in Daniel Baciagalupo's life when Joe wasn't loved or remembered. The cook had been murdered in his bed, but Dominic Baciagalupo had had the last laugh on the cowboy. Ketchum's left hand would lvie forever in Twisted River, and Six-Pack had known what to do with the rest of her old friend”
― John Irving, quote from Last Night in Twisted River

“The man who succeeds proves himself an expert puzzle-solver, and the challenge of the puzzle is an important part of what usually drives him on.”
― Thomas S. Kuhn, quote from The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

“Do things that make you happy within the confines of the legal system.”
― Ellen DeGeneres, quote from Seriously... I'm Kidding

“I'm gonna get in his face," Jackie whispered her threat and Colt couldn't help it, he smiled into his phone. Jackie got a hold of him, hatchet or not, Denny Lowe didn't stand a chance. A lioness was lethal when her cubs were under threat.”
― Kristen Ashley, quote from For You

“Behind the newspaper Julian was withdrawing into the inner compartment of his mind where he spent most of his time. This was a kind of mental bubble in which he established himself when he could not bear to be a part of what was going on around him. From it he could see out and judge but in it he was safe from any kind of penetration from without. It was the only place where he felt free of the general idiocy of his fellows. His mother had never entered it but from it he could see her with absolute clarity.”
― Flannery O'Connor, quote from Everything That Rises Must Converge: Stories

About BookQuoters

BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.

We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.

Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
