“Ali nekad, kasno uvečer, dok na neudobnom kauču vrti programe na televiziji ne bi li nekako usnula, uspijeva pomisliti da je problem baš u tom preživljavanju. Sve je ona preživjela dosad, sa svime se nakako izborila, ali možda, samo možda, bolje bi bilo da nekad jednostavno nije preživjela. Da je pukla, slomila se, dopustila da je boli dulje od dan, dva, pet. Da je boli mjesecima. Da je boli pa što bude. Da jednostavno prestane preživljavati.”
― Iva Ušćumlić, Omara

“A character at unity with itself –that performs what it intends, subdues every counteracting impulse, and has no visions beyond the distinctly possible –is strong by its very negations.”
― George Eliot, The Mill on the Floss

“Tu m’as dit ‘’Je t’aime’’, je t’ai dit ‘’Attends’’. J’allais dire ‘’Prends-moi’’, tu m’as dit ‘’Va-t-en”
― françois truffaut, Jules et Jim

“Don't separate the mind from the body. Don't separate even character - you can't. Our unit of existence is a body, a physical, tangible, sensate entity with perceptions and reactions that express it and form it simultaneously.
Disease is one of our languages. Doctors understand what disease has to say about itself. It's up to the person with the disease to understand what the disease has to say to her.
