“Най-важните неща се изричат винаги най-трудно. Това са нещата, от които се срамуваш, понеже думите ги смаляват, те свиват нещата, изглеждали безгранични, докато са били в главата ти, до съвсем тривиални размери, когато се изрекат.
Но не само това, нали?
Най-важните неща се намират съвсем близо до истинската ти същност, която не обичаш да показваш на другите – като съкровище, което враговете ти с радост биха ограбили. И може да се случи така, че да разкриеш душата си, което съвсем не е лесно, само за да те изгледат особено, без изобщо да разберат какво си казал или защо си помислил казаното за така важно, че едва не си се разплакал, докато си споделял своята тайна.
Струва ми се, че това е най-лошото – когато тайната остава заключена в тебе, не поради липса на разказвач, а поради липса на слушател, който да те разбере.”
― Stephen King

― Steven Erikson, Deadhouse Gates

“You have your brush, you have your colors, you paint the paradise, then in you go.”
