“Никога няма да бъдем толкова обичани, колкото в детството си. И затова детството е жестоко време. Неговата жестокост е в предстоящото. Къде се губи тази любов след време? Защо цял живот после искаме да ни обичат така, както са ни обичали като деца, без причина, поради едничкия факт, че съществуваме?”
― Georgi Gospodinov, Natural Novel

“You're not Dostoevsky,' said the citizeness, who was getting muddled by Koroviev. Well, who knows, who knows,' he replied.

'I protest!' Behemoth exclaimed hotly. 'Dostoevsky is immortal!”

“Дадох си сметка, за пръв път с тази яснота (яснотата на януарския въздух), че онова, което остава не са извънредните моменти, не са събитията, а тъкмо нищонеслучващото се. Време, освободено от претенцията за изключителност. Спомени за следобеди, в които нищо не се е случило. Нищо, освен живота, в цялата му пълнота.”
― Georgi Gospodinov, Физика на тъгата
