Haal-e-dil

Zabt ka ahd bhi hai, shoq ka paimaan bhi hai,
Ahd-o-paiman se guzar jaaney ko ji chahta hai,
Dard itna hai keh har rug mein hai mehshar barpa,
Aur sakoon itna keh mar janey ko ji chahta hai.

There is no logic.

Filed under: General

“What good did the theories of the philosophers do us? Did they help us to take a single step forward or backward? What is forward, what is backward? Did they alter our forms of contentment? We are. We argue, we dispute, we get excited. The rest is sauce. Sometimes pleasant, sometimes mixed with a limitless boredom, a swamp dotted with tufts of dying shrubs.”
- Tzara, ‘Dadaism’

Fuck logic.
