    O. Henry
    “The magi, as you know, were wise men--wonderfully wise men--who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas presents. Being wise, their gifts were no doubt wise ones, possibly bearing the privilege of exchange in case of duplication. And here I have lamely related to you the uneventful chronicle of two foolish children in a flat who most unwisely sacrificed for each other the greatest treasures of their house. But in a last word to the wise of these days let it be said that of all who give gifts these two were the wisest. O all who give and receive gifts, such as they are wisest. Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi.”

    “,,... უდაბნოს ქარები მარტო სიტყვებს კი არა, თურმე ფრაზებს, წინადადებებს და ამბებსაც კი იმახსოვრებენ. რასაც ადამიანები კარგავენ, ქარები ინახავენ და ყვებიან. მთავარია მოსმენა იცოდე; ჯერ სიჩუმის მოსმენა უნდა ისწავლო, მერე კი-ქარის. ქარმა იცის, რა იყო და რა არის და რა იქნება, რადგან როცა არაფერი იყო, იყო მხოლოდ ქარი.”

    Mikhail Bulgakov
    “What would your good be doing if there were no evil, and what would the earth look like if shadows disappeared from it? After all, shadows are cast by objects and people. There is the shadow of my sword. But there are also shadows of trees and living creatures. Would you like to denude the earth of all the trees and all the living beings in order to satisfy your fantasy of rejoicing in the naked light?”
