“Govor nam je potreban koliko i vazduh koji udišemo, jer se govorom oslobađamo pritiska nerealizovanih misli, priča i rečenica. Ćutanje može da ubije - i onoga koji ćuti, kao i onoga koji sluša.”
― David Albahari, Životinjsko carstvo

“Няма по-страшно от това, каза жената, да попиташ някого дали те обича и да видиш изписана върху лицето му такава досада, че да ти се прииска да забравиш, че съществуваш, само дето въпросът вече е зададен, думите висят във въздуха като прани гащи и ти остава единствено да мълчиш и да чакаш отговора, който бездруго не означава нищо.”
― David Albahari, Кравата е самотно животно
