“With so much misery around, fighting for social advancement had lost all meaning.”
― Annie Ernaux, A Woman's Story

“When I was a child, luxury was fur coats, evening dresses, and villas by the sea. Later on, I thought it meant leading the life of an intellectual. Now I feel that it is also being able to live out a passion for a man or a woman.”
― Annie Ernaux, Simple Passion

“This can be said about shame: those who experience it feel that anything can happen to them, that the shame will never cease and that it will only be followed by more shame.”
― Annie Ernaux, Shame

“osim u dedi
ni u čemu nismo bili bolji
od komišluka

i zašto sad nije ovde
da mi na kosu stavi venac
od ivanjskog cveća

na dlanove pospe vodu
sa tri izvora

i skine mi tvoje čini
šašave”
― Radmila Petrović, Moja mama zna šta se dešava u gradovima
