“-Τι κάνετε όταν αγαπάτε έναν άνθρωπο; ρώτησαν τον κύριο Κ.
-Του φτιάχνω ένα σκίτσο, είπε ο κύριος Κ. και φροντίζω να του μοιάζει.
-Ποιο; Το σκίτσο;
-Όχι, ο άνθρωπος, είπε ο κύριος Κ.”
― Bertolt Brecht, Stories of Mr. Keuner

“Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is at their heels.”
― Bertolt Brecht

“Εσύ δεν είσαι που σου αρέσει να δοκιμάζεις το σώμα σου σαν να ήταν ολόσωμο κολάν;”
― Ευγένιος Αρανίτσης, Η μαθήτρια που έγινε αμύγδαλο

“Have you got any soul?" a woman asks the next afternoon. That depends, I feel like saying; some days yes, some days no. A few days ago I was right out; now I've got loads, too much, more than I can handle. I wish I could spread it a bit more evenly, I want to tell her, get a better balance, but I can't seem to get it sorted. I can see she wouldn't be interested in my internal stock control problems though, so I simply point to where I keep the soul I have, right by the exit, just next to the blues.”
― Nick Hornby, High Fidelity
