“Little events, ordinary things, smashed and reconstituted. Suddenly, they become the bleached bones of a story.”
― Arundhati Roy, The God of Small Things

“Being with you and not being with you is the only way I have to measure time.”
― Jorge Luis Borges

“I loved you so much once. I did. More than anything in the whole wide world. Imagine that. What a laugh that is now. Can you believe it? We were so intimate once upon a time I can't believe it now. The memory of being that intimate with somebody. We were so intimate I could puke. I can't imagine ever being that intimate with somebody else. I haven't been.”
― Raymond Carver, Where I'm Calling From: Selected Stories

“Onog trenutka kad sindikatima najvažnija aktivnost postane pravljenje kompromisa, zarad očuvanja radnih mesta unutar „nove realnosti“, oni sami postaju mehanizmi za smanjivanje očekivanja i disciplinovanje neposluš- nog radništva. U takvoj situaciji ujedno se zatvaraju i svi prostori za razmatranje alternativa; kompromisi postaju jedina alternativa gubitku posla, a mobilizacija članstva kanališe se u zahtevima za osnaživanje korporacija (kroz davanje podrške državnim subvencijama), umesto da dovodi u pitanje korporativnu moć. Ukoliko zanemarimo povremene izlete u radikalnu retoriku, sindikalne vođe su prečesto igrale uznemirujuće veliku ulogu u navikavanju radništva na prihvatanje ograničenja nametnutih pritiscima konkurentnosti.”
