Quotes by Iva Procházková (?)

“Regresar resulta un tanto raro. Si uno viaja a alguna parte, no piensa ya en el estado de la gente y de los lugares que se dejan atrás. Pero cuando regresas después de un largo periodo de ausencia, es como un golpe en la cabeza o un terremoto en toda regla. De pronto, todo tiene un aspecto distinto. Las montañas son más bajas, el agua mucho menos profunda, los largos caminos terminan abruptamente, personas que hasta hace poco decían: "Eso tú no lo entiendes. No te entremezcles", te escuchan y asienten amablemente, el póster en la pared, que te ha costado todo tu dinero, ha perdido toda importancia y los ojos de mamá están a la misma altura que los de una misma.”
― Iva Procházková, Carolina: Ein knapper Lebenslauf
