“Nor did he give a damn for the world either, or the universe, or heaven or hell. But he liked women.”
― John Fante, The Brotherhood of the Grape

“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.”

“It's almost impossible for anybody to believe that they're not loved by someone they believe they love. But honey, I love nobody.”
― Tennessee Williams, The Night of the Iguana

“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: New and Selected Stories
