    Slaviša Pavlović
    “We play in twelve rounds. The present against me. I lost the previous eleven. Defeat after defeat. And now I am waiting for the last round. The key round. The fact that I did not fall so far gives me more strength. It’s only now that I hope to win, by knock-out, because the fate is too tired from punches that it will eventually fall by itself. And maybe it will fall on knees when it realizes that I am not going to fall.”
    Slaviša Pavlović

    Slaviša Pavlović
    “Nikada nisam voleo da budem deo igre, nego da otvoreno pokazujem misli i osećanja, jer igra, ma koliko zanimljiva bila, donosi pravila, koja čoveku oduzimaju jedan deo slobode, ali i prirodnu potrebu da igru završi pobedom. A u ljubavi, svaka pobeda je poraz, osim ako oboje ne pobedimo.”
    Slaviša Pavlović

    Slaviša Pavlović
    “I kada vas gađaju kamenjem, guraju u stranu, vuku unazad, vi nastavite. Sledite svoj cilj, polako koračajte, istrpite svaku nedaću i uspeh je neminovan. Onda ćete se osvrnuti, pogledati sve njih, bednike, koji i dalje stoje na istom mestu i rade to isto drugima. Ovog puta, vas će veličati, govoreći da su oni zaslužni za vaš uspeh. Oprostite i sažalite se, neka nisu pomogli, vi ste uspeli, a oni su ostali iza vas.”
    Slavisa Pavlovic, Nema šanse da ne uspem

    Slaviša Pavlović
    “Jer, ma koliko to čudno zvučalo, ljubav se uvek može uporediti sa mačem sa dve oštrice. Prva oštrica, udaljenija, poput Eskalibura prividno budi najčistija osećanja, preplavljujući telo nekom začaranom energijom. Blagotvornom. Snažnom. Okrepljujućom. Ona je ta koja naše ciljeve načini ostvarljivim. Drugu oštricu ne vidimo. Ona jeste bliža, samo, od uprtih pogleda ka prvoj, mi se ne osvrćemo. Vidici su nam suženi. Tupi. Neretko, poneseni zaslepljenošću, ne upotrebljavamo svest, zdrav razum, pa tako nesvesni sami sebi nabijamo vrh oštrice u srce. Nakon toga, postajemo slabi, krhki, ranjivi… Tu ranjivost, taj neuspeh, ispoljavamo pogrešno. Kroz ljutnju. Bes. Trudimo se da prikrijemo stvarno stanje, sve više upadajući u vrtlog izgubljenosti, jer nas rđa i bezljubavna hladnoća oštrice sve više prlja Ipak, lek postoji. Ali se pametni leče. Oni drugi nastavljajući sa povređivanjem, ne primećuju da lek postoji u isto tako naoštrenom maču. Samo treba usmeriti pažnju na prvu oštricu. Tu se zapravo krije eliksir izlečenja. Ne u oštrici.Već u iskustvu. Svakom se dogodi.”
    Slavisa Pavlovic, Zavet heroja

    I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn
    “I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
    Marilyn Monroe

    Steve Jobs
    “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
    Steve Jobs

    H. Jackson Brown Jr.
    “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
    H. Jackson Brown Jr., P.S. I Love You

    Marilyn Monroe

    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”
    J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

    “Svakoga dana pronalazio bi po koju zaboravljenu Uninu stvarčicu, iz koje bi ga nasmešeno gledale njene srneće oči. Kada je jedanput istresao madrac, pronašao je tri ukosnice, napukli češalj sa srebrnim zvezdama, četvrt čokolade punjene kokosom i do pola popušenu kutiju "Marlboroa". U kupatilu je otkrio ljubičasti ruž za usne i vatu. Fetišista! Je li to sve što ostaje posle ljubavi? I šta, uopšte, ostaje posle nje? Telefonski broj koji lagano bledi u pamćenju? Čaše sa ugraviranim monogramima ukradene u "Esplanadi". Posle ljubavi ostaje običaj da se belo vino sipa u te dve čaše, i da crte budu na istoj visini. Posle ljubavi ostaje jedan sto u kafani kod znaka "?" i začuđeni pogled starog kelnera što nas vidi sa drugima. Posle ljubavi ostaje rečenica: "Divno izgledaš, nisi se ništa promenila..." I: "Javi se ponekad, još imaš moj broj telefona." I neki brojevi hotelskih soba u kojima smo spavali ostaju posle ljubavi. Posle ljubavi ostaju tamne ulice kojima smo se vraćali posle ljubavi. Ostaju tajni znaci, ljubavne šifre: "Ako me voliš, započni sutrašnje predavanje sa tri reči koje će imati početna slova mog imena..." Ušao je u amfiteatar i kazao: "U našoj avangardi..." Poslala mu je poljubac. Posle ljubavi ostaje tvoja strana postelje i strah da će neko iznenada naići. Klak - spuštena slušalica kada se javi tuđi glas. Hiljadu i jedna laž. Posle ljubavi ostaje rečenica koja luta kao duh po sobi: "Ja ću prva u kupatilo!" - i pitanje: "Zar nećemo zajedno?" Ovaj put, ne. Posle ljubavi ostaju saučesnici: čuvari tajni koje više nisu nikakve tajne. Posle ljubavi ostaje laka uznemirenost kad u prolazu udahnem "Cabochard" na nekoj nepoznatoj, crnomanjastoj devojci. Prepune pepeljare i prazno srce. Navika da se pale dve cigarete, istovremeno, mada nema nikog u blizini. Fotografije snimljene u automatu, taksisti koji nas nikada nisu voleli ( "Hvala što ne pušite!" - a pušili smo), i cvećarke koje jesu. Posle ljubavi ostaje povređena sujeta. Metalni ukus promašenosti na usnama. Posle ljubavi ostaju drugi ljudi i druge žene. Posle ljubavi, ne ostaje ništa. Sranje...”
    Momo Kapor, Una
