    Neil Gaiman
    “I believe that mankind's destiny lies in the stars. I believe that candy really did taste better when I was a kid, that it's aerodynamically impossible for a bumble bee to fly, that light is a wave and a particle, that there's a cat in a box somewhere who's alive and dead at the same time (although if they don't ever open the box to feed it it'll eventually just be two different kinds of dead), and that there are stars in the universe billions of years older than the universe itself.”
    ― Neil Gaiman

    Blaga Dimitrova
    “Любимото лице не се запомня - макар и да го гледаш часове.
    Дали защото се впечатва в тебе така дълбоко, че през теб излиза и се излъчва някъде отвъд?
    Или защото, гледайки в него дълго, все искаш в погледа му да откриеш как ти се отразяваш там и търсиш в него собственото си лице?”
    ― Blaga Dimitrova, Лавина
