Anšlavs Eglītis
“Latvieši, kā visiem zināms, ir dzejnieku tauta. Tikai pavisam retais latvietis nebūs vismaz jaunībā kaut drusku pavingrinājies dzejot… Zīmīgi un apbrīnojami, ka latviešu apsēstība ar dzeju izveidojusies par spīti tam, ka dzejo latviski ir nesalīdzināmi grūtāk nekā citās valodās. Patiesībā, tieši bezdievīgi grūti. Kā lai poēts uzlido poēzijas eteriskajos augstumos, ja kā dzirnavu akmens karājas kaklā stingais, negrozāmais uzsvars uz katra vārda pirmā balsiena? Un piedevām, nabaga latviešu dzejnieku līdz izmisumam vārdzina pagalam trūcīga atskaņu izvēle.”
Anšlavs Eglītis

John  Green
“As we walked, I kept taking glances at her through the crowd, quick snapshots: a photographic series entitled Perfection Stands Still While Mortals Walk Past.”
John Green, Paper Towns

Simone de Beauvoir
“I am awfully greedy; I want everything from life. I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want. And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.”
Simone de Beauvoir

Jarod Kintz
“Just because I liked something at one point in time doesn’t mean I’ll always like it, or that I have to go on liking it at all points in time as an unthinking act of loyalty to who I am as a person, based solely on who I was as a person. To be loyal to myself is to allow myself to grow and change, and challenge who I am and what I think. The only thing I am for sure is unsure, and this means I’m growing, and not stagnant or shrinking.”
Jarod Kintz, At even one penny, this book would be overpriced. In fact, free is too expensive, because you'd still waste time by reading it.
