“Rašytojas, poetas savo kūrybai pajėgų ir medžiagos semia iš dviejų šaltinių: iš savo asmenybės ir iš aplinkinio pasaulio. Bet reikia, kad asmenybė būtų stipri ir vieninga, o pasaulis, gyvenimas, tikrovė jaučiama tiesiogiai ir gyvai.”
― Vincas Mykolaitis-Putinas, Altorių šešėly

“I am constantly trying to communicate something incommunicable, to explain something inexplicable, to tell about something I only feel in my bones and which can only be experienced in those bones. Basically it is nothing other than this fear we have so often talked about, but fear spread to everything, fear of the greatest as of the smallest, fear, paralyzing fear of pronouncing a word, although this fear may not only be fear but also a longing for something greater than all that is fearful.”
― Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena

“I am free and that is why I am lost.”
― Franz Kafka

“…There is the heat of Love, the pulsing rush of Longing, the lover’s whisper, irresistible—magic to make the sanest man go mad.”
― Homer, The Iliad
