“Now I am writing this diary in English, which for me is not the language of intimacy or love, but an attempt at distance and sanity, a means of recalling normality.”

“Siempre las mismas caras que le recuerdan la herencia del día anterior, las promesas y las obligaciones, los deseos ceñidos por el orden de las frases conocidas. Afloran las palabras que no quiere pronunciar, pero incluso sin pronunciarlas están ahí, contra su voluntad, no le permiten alejarse, desviarse a una calle lateral, explorar un pasaje umbrío, salir a una plaza desconocida, entrar en otra vida.”

“Misli su uvek nečije. Moje su tvoje. Osvrćem se oko sebe. Gde si? Grad mi je pred očima i iza leđa, pulsira, tmulo, tmasto. Ukorenjeni ritam večne pretnje, svireposti koja ne bira kada će da udari.”

“I think of myself as a political idiot. Idiot, in ancient Greece, denoted a common person without access to knowledge and information--all women, by definition, and most men. I am unable to make judgments. I see no options I can identify with. Is that normal?”

“We had watched the Sacramento Kings, my favorite NBA team, playing the Indiana Pacers. The Pacers had won but it was still fun, especially since we had tickets for the third row. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Vlade Divac and Predrag Stojakovic, two Serbs playing in the Kings, waving at me and saying hello. They recognized the jersey of Divac's former team from Belgrade that I had been wearing.”

“Posle vekova ropstva, četrdeset bombarovanja, ratova i čudovišnih političkih režima, podelâ koje nas i danas svrstavaju u „Nas” i „Njih”, nisam mogao da ne pomislim da nad Beogradom ne pada kiša, već samo suze, da mi ne znamo za prašinu, već samo za pepeo. Ko zna koliko puta sam poželeo da mi Beograd ne znači ništa, da mogu da pođem bilo gde, dalje od boli koju mi pričinjava što poreklo vučem odavde, a ne sa Jupitera, sa Neptuna. Ali, znao sam da bih bol pronašao bilo gde.”

“Probdeo sam noć i sačekao da me sunce podseti da je u Beogradu podnošljivije, te i poželjnije živeti tokom noći. Lađa sa gradskog grba i dalje grabi ka dubinama ušća Save u Dunav, sa sve svojim građanima, neki skaču sa palube, neki tonu sa brodom, ali spokoj koji sati posle ponoći pružaju pomažu da se o tome misli nekom drugom prilikom, pa trećom, četvrtom i petom, dok prilika ne nestane. Mrak i muk i meandriranje sudbine svih svetova koje na krupnijem planu ništa ne menja. U tome sam uvek nalazio utehu kada bih, užljebljen u svakodnevicu, pomislio da je ma koji od mojih problema zbog nečega značajan.”
