Saira Viola
“Just a bullet a bag and a dream that's all I had now look at what I got”
Saira Viola, Crack Apple And Pop!

Serhiy Zhadan
“Життя — це як космічна ракета, і якщо ти заліз до неї, то сиди і нічого не чіпай, просто будь готовий до того, що життя твоє круто зміниться. В кожному разі дітей у тебе точно не буде. Та й загалом — нормального сексу. Це ти мусиш із самого початку враховувати — або секс, або космос, і тут є з чого вибирати, тому що насправді жодне трахання в світі, хай навіть найбільш підривне трахання, не варте того великого й прекрасного, що відкривається тобі з ілюмінатора твоєї бляшаної ракети, деякі краєвиди в цьому житті, деякі ландшафти варті того, аби за них заплатити найдорожчим, що в тебе є, себто ерекцією, але щоби зрозуміти це, потрібно бути щонайменше космонавтом, ну, на крайняк — ангелом, що в умовах розпаду капіталу — однофігственно.”
Сергій Жадан (Serhiy Zhadan), Depeche Mode
