    Marin Preda
    “Ținea la el! Ei, și? Și el ținea la ea, și unde scrie că lucrul cel mai potrivit care urmau să-l facă ei doi era să-și răpească unul altuia libertatea? Numai pentru că dintre atîția bărbați ți-a plăcut la un moment dat unul singur? Acest moment dat nu e numai un ”moment”, cum spune și cuvîntul, adică ceva trecător, dar mai e și ”dat”, adică impus de împrejurări. Nu e deci clar că valoarea lui dispare îndată ce dispar împrejurările?”
    Marin Preda, Marele singuratic

    Pablo Neruda
    “I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.
    Silent and starving, I prowl through the streets.
    Bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts me, all day
    I hunt for the liquid measure of your steps.

    I hunger for your sleek laugh,
    your hands the color of a savage harvest,
    hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails,
    I want to eat your skin like a whole almond.

    I want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body,
    the sovereign nose of your arrogant face,
    I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes,

    and I pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight,
    hunting for you, for your hot heart,
    Like a puma in the barrens of Quitratue.”
    Pablo Neruda

    Lucian Blaga
    “Liniste

    Atâta linişte-i în jur de-mi pare că aud
    cum se izbesc de geamuri razele de lună.

    În piept
    mi s-a trezit un glas străin
    şi-un cântec cânta-n mine-un dor
    ce nu-i al meu.

    Se spune că strămoşii cari au murit fără de vreme,
    cu sânge tânăr înca-n vine,
    cu patimi mari în sânge,
    cu soare viu în patimi,
    vin,
    vin sa-şi trăiasca mai departe
    în noi
    viaţa netrăita.

    Atâta linişte-i în jur de-mi pare că aud
    cum se izbesc de geamuri razele de lună.

    O, cine ştie - suflete,-n ce piept îţi vei cânta
    şi tu odată peste veacuri
    pe coarde dulci de linişte,
    pe harfă de-ntuneric - dorul sugrumat
    şi frânta bucurie de viaţă? Cine ştie?
    Cine ştie?

    (1919)”
    Lucian Blaga, Poemele luminii

    Mircea Eliade
    “S-ar putea întâmpla fel de fel de miracole, continuase el fără s-o privească. Dar trebuie să te înveţe cineva cum să le priveşti, ca să ştii că sunt miracole. Altminteri, nici măcar nu le vezi. Treci pe lângă ele şi nu ştii că sunt miracole. Nu le vezi...”
