Hello!
First of all, actually this isn't book review as the other review I've done before. I don't have the flatlay photo of this book as usual for the blog thumbnail because I read them at the electronic book, hehe.
So, I just came here to write anything, the whole arranged words over my head.
This is such a pearl words, some quotes, any precious sentences that may build your soul, no, my soul. Our soul.
I'll give you the book information first, here it is.

Here we go!
First, from Page 94
When there is love, you can live even without happiness.
─Dostoevsky's (Notes from Underground)
Yes, you are. I've ever read great sounds from great author, that─someone who loves being alone, they are never blaming others or getting mad of their situations or being sick of their choices or anything else. Just, they are. They loves(do) what they wanna love(do). We can live, even we are alone, only with the situations if you have a pieces of love. Anything lover. As simple as that.
From page 147
I can imagine if there's nothing in my pocket,
But I can not imagine if there's no knowledge in my mind and religion in my heart.
There are my other suns in my life.
So much agreed and let me give them a 90° bow down to people who put religion on top and knowledge then, up above everything. No words can say, this is all.
The one below maybe nothing, but I fancy its words, from page 148
Dedicated to my father, mother, sisters and my tears that ever made the most beautiful line on my way here.
Because our tears to be here is something else. Someday, it is overflowing till dry and feeling tired and sick, and this is many people called Hurt. But overall, no pain no gain is real.
The last one, from page 207
Ah, children, ah dear friends, do not be afraid of life! How good life is when you do something good & rightful!
─Dostoevsky's (The Brother Karamazov)
