“ქალი ან უნდა გააღმერთო, ან უნდა მიატოვო. ყველაფერი დანარჩენი სიცრუეა.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, Arch of Triumph: A Novel of a Man Without a Country

“Love should not be polluted with friendship.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, Arch of Triumph: A Novel of a Man Without a Country

“Love is not a businessman who wants to see a return on his investments. And imagination needs only a few nails on which to hang its veil. Whether they are of gold, tin, or covered with rust makes no difference to it. Wherever it gets caught, it is caught. Thornbush or rosebush, as soon as the veil of moonlight and mother-of-pearl has fallen on it, either becomes a fairy tale out of A Thousand and One Nights”
― Erich Maria Remarque, Arch of Triumph: A Novel of a Man Without a Country

“When the job’s done, he smacks me on the shoulder and we run off like handsome thieves. We both laugh and run, and the moment is so thick around me that I feel like dropping into it to let it carry me.
I love the laughter of this night.
Our footsteps run, and I don’t want them to end. I want to run and laugh and feel like this forever. I want to avoid my awkward moment when the realness of reality sticks its fork into our flesh, leaving us standing there, together. I want to stay here, in this moment, and never go to other places, where we don’t know what to say or what to do.
For now, just let us run.
We run straight through the laughter of the night.”
― Markus Zusak, I Am the Messenger
