“Grant me one hour on love’s most sacred shores
To clasp the bosom that my soul adores,
Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours.”
― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Faust, First Part

“     ‘The onboard computer just wants to say a few words before we leave.’
     The speakers in the cabin crackled into life. ‘Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to welcome you on-board the presidential shuttle for tonight’s illicit flight, Alfa Bravo Charlie. I would just like to say it’s a pleasure to meet you all and thank you so much for coming here tonight to steal me. To be honest I don’t get out much these days so this is something of a special occasion.’
     ‘It will be for us too if we get caught,’ Semilla said sardonically.”
― A.R. Merrydew, Our Blue Orange

“May the sun shine on you all day long, everything go right and nothing wrong. May those you love bring love back to you, and may all the wishes you wish come true.”
― Rebecca Rosenberg, Madame Pommery, Creator of Brut Champagne

“Tuga je vrlo neobičan osjećaj, tako smo bespomoćni kad se s njome suočimo. To je nešto poput prozora koji se otvara po vlastitoj volji. Soba se hladi, a mi možemo samo bespomoćno drhtati. Međutim, prozor se svaki put otvori malo manje, pa još manje i jednog se dana pitamo gdje je nestao.”
― Arthur Golden, Memoirs of a Geisha
