    Neil Gaiman
    “Adults follow paths. Children explore. Adults are content to walk the same way, hundreds of times, or thousands; perhaps it never occurs to adults to step off the paths, to creep beneath rhododendrons, to find the spaces between fences. I was a child, which meant that I knew a dozen different ways of getting out of our property and into the lane, ways that would not involve walking down our drive.”
    ― Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane

Yet he is lord of all the animals. He sets them to work, he gives back to them the bare minimum that will prevent them from starving, and the rest he keeps for himself.”
    ― George Orwell, Animal Farm

    Mesrop Harutyunyan
    “Թվացյալ կյանքի և իրականության միջև մոլորված մի մարդ։ Սեփական պատկերացումների ձեռքը կրակն ես ընկել ու էդ պատկերացումդ փորձում ես հարմարեցնել կյանքին։ Չի ստացվել։ Ոչ մեկի մոտ։ Ու չի ստացվի։ Երբեք։ Քանզի քո աշխարհը քո ուզածին մոտ ձևով կառուցելու համար պետք է կտրվես֊վերանաս ամեն ինչից՝ հիշողությունից անգամ։ Ստեղծես ճգնավորի մի անապատ ու այնտեղ կառուցես քո տունը, մշակես քո հողը, քո հատիկը նետես այդ հողի մեջ ու սպասես։”
