Dino Buzzati
“— Ты ранил меня, и это подло, — сказала сорока, помолчав. — Наверняка я умру. Но прежде чем умереть, я хочу прочесть стихотворение. — Стихотворение? — Да, — с грустью промолвила сорока. — Поэзия — единственная моя отрада.”
Dino Buzzati, Il segreto del Bosco Vecchio

“Goddamnit, I hate murder more than just about anything,” said Sheriff Red Jetty. “It can just ruin a day.”
