“Всегда и везде с осторожностью относитесь к воспоминаниям людей старшего поколения. Они вовсе не думают обманывать себя и других, но сами видят вместо прошедшей жизни мираж отобранных памятью ощущений и образов, окрашенных вдобавок тоскливым сожалением о днях выносливой и здоровой молодости, быстро отдыхающей, крепко спящей. И полагающей, что так будет всегда, что естественный конец всего живого ее или не касается, или скрыт в неведомой дали.”
― Ivan Yefremov, Лезвие бритвы

“Потому что большая любовь - это всегда ответственность и забота, защита и опасение, думы о том, как устроить и облегчить жизнь для самого дорогого в мире существа.”
