My Life Is My Passion

Share

Aku ingin mendaki puncak tantangan, menerjang batu granit kesulitan,
menggoda mara bahaya, dan memecahkan misteri dengan hati.

Aku ingin menghirup berupa-rupa pengalaman lalu terjun bebas
meyelami labirin lika-liku yang ujungnya tak dapat disangka.

Aku mendamba kehidupan dengan kemungkinan-kemungkinan yang bereaksi satu sama lain
seperti benturan molekul uranium:
meletup tak terduga-duga, menyerap, mengikat, mengganda, berkembang,
terurai, dan berpencar ke arah yang mengejutkan.

Aku ingin ke tempat-tempat jauh,
menjumpai beragam bahasa dan orang-orang asing.

Aku ingin berkelana,
menemukan arahku dengan membaca bintang gemintang.

Aku ingin mengarungi padang dan gurun-gurun,
ingin melepuh terbakar matahri,
limbung menciut dicengkeram badai.

Aku ingin kehiduan yang menggetarkan,
penuh penaklukan.

Aku ingin hidup!
Ingin merasakan saripati hidup!

Dostoevsky's

You must know that there's nothing higher, or stronger, or sounder, or more useful afterward in life, than good memory, especially a memory from childhood, from the parental home.
You hear a lot said about your education, yet some such beautiful, sacred memory, preserved from childhood, is perhaps the best education. If a man stores up many such memories to take into life, then he is saved for his whole life. And even if only one good memory remains with us in our hearts, that alone may serve some day for our salvation.

And do you know, do you know that mankind can live without Englishman, it can live without Germany, it can live only too well without the Russian man, it can live without science, without bread, and it only can't live without beauty,for then would be nothing at all to do in the world!
The whole secret is here, the whole of history is here. Science itself would not stand for a minute without beauty.

Ah, children, ah dear friends,
don't be afraid of life! How good life is when yo do something good and rightful!
