Quotes by Gordon Ambos (?)

“Einige Minuten lang schaute ich ihn an, beobachtete, wie sich seine Nasenlöcher bei jedem Atemzug etwas weiteten. Dann zählte ich die Blondtöne in seinem Haar und kam auf drei, bis die Mittagssonne in das Zimmer strahlte und alles in ein völlig anderes Farbschema tauchte.
»Was hältst du von Birnen?«, kam es unvermittelt von Joki, der immer noch aussah, als würde er schlafen. War er etwa die ganze Zeit wach gewesen? Ertappt kniff ich die Augen zusammen.”
― Gordon Ambos, Das Meer dazwischen
