“Za štrikliranje pasoša sam k znanju primio. Ne tiče me se. Dok je Aleksandar, u Srbiju neću dolaziti. U veću me brigu baca što zabranjuju skupove. A kod nas, gde nema gužve, nema ni smutnje. Srbi nisu, kao Romeji, pogodni za dogovore, sozokletija, tajna društva. Srpska Heterija je nemoguća. Oni su više za naprečac dizanje i svršavanje stvari usput. U smislu toga da krenu na litiju, a završe paljevinom Dvora. U toj osebini valja i tražiti lek belaju sa zakonom protiv zborovanja i dogovaranja. Da l’ se opominješ propalog projekta da dignemo bunu pod vidom sakupljanja potpisa za povratak iz internacije onih propalica, Vučića i Petronijevića?”

“Najvećim delom sveta danas krekeću pare,
Umesto plodnih njiva dremaju smrdljive bare;
Najvećim delom sveta danas su jedino siti
Hulje i paraziti.

Ostali narod je pesak,
O njemu ne vode brigu;
Vetar goni,
Pa se pita,
Pa se pita,
Ko te pita!”
― Aleksandar Vučo, Podvizi družine "Pet petlića"

“Seth was giving the chauffeur his instructions, and
in this pause just before their adventure really began,
Flora gazed up searchingly at the windows of the farm-
house. ***They were dead as the eyes of fishes,
reflecting the dim, pallid blue of the fading west. The
crenellated line of the roof thrust blind ledges against
a sky into which the infusion of the darkness was
already beginning to seep. The livid silver tongues
of the early stars leaped between the shapes of the
chinmey-pots, backwards and forwards, like idiot
children dancing to a forgotten tune.”
― Stella Gibbons

“But scholars (rightly in principle, if often dreadfully wrongly in practice) abhor vacuums as much as nature does, and sometimes do naughty things to fill
them.”
