“Когато си на дъното на пъкъла,
когато си най-тъжен, най-злочест,
от парещите въглени на мъката
си направи сам стълба и излез.

Когато от безпътица премазан си
и си зазидан в четири стени,
от всички свои пътища прерязани
нов път си направи и пак тръгни.

Светът когато мръкне пред очите ти
и притъмнява в тези две очи,
сам слънце си създай и от лъчите му
с последния до него се качи.

Трънлив и сляп е на живота ребусът,
на кръст разпъва нашите души.
Загубил всичко, не загубвай себе си –
единствено така ще го решиш!”
― Дамян Дамянов

Наклали вратове, те, безочливите санчовци, са оставали да сбират брашънцето от вятърните мелници на своите безумни рицари. Дорде накрай о тях вкарат в гроба, а себе си - в безсмъртието... Да бе обърнал оня пищов към тях, защо - към себе си! С истински куршуми. Но такива от куршум не мрат, те са безсмъртни. Объркан живот е вашият, човешкият, тъжен и смешен, жесток!”
― Дамян Дамянов

“Многоточие...
Обичам този знак. Макар неважен,
макар неясен... Скъсан... Просто малко...
Човекът нещо искал е да каже...
Но... изведнъж се сетил... Премълчал го...
...Защо - не знаеш... Скъсаната нишка
останала. А той самият - де го?
Три точици... Прекъсната въздишка...
Единствен спомен... Някому... От него...”
― Дамян Дамянов
