“-Bukstiņ, tu noslīksi! - Andrs iekliedzās un metās palīgā. Tūliņ arī Ješka bij klāt un ieraudzīja, ka apdegušie pagaļgali un ogles veļas ūdenī un čūkstēdamas apdziest.
-Bukstiņ, tu apdegsi!”

“Книгата е приказна лампа, която дарява на човека светлина в най-далечните и тъмни пътища на живота.”

“Bukstiņš paskatījās vēlreiz, viņa skatienā nepārprotami lasāms tas, ko mute nejaudāja: nu, ko es teicu? Tad saņēmies pagrieza vēderpusi pret ugunskuru, tagad viņa mugura skaidri rādīja: ko tur, kad jau ēd, lai ēd! Bet ja jau skorderis tā, tad zēni taču nevarēja izrādīt bailes un kā nelgas skatīties tukšā tumsā. Sagula un saritinājās atkal, tikai vēl ciešāk piespiedās viens otram.”
