Angelos Terzakis
“Αυτός ξεδίπλωσε την εφημερίδα κι έκανε να διαβάσει. Όμως, τα μάτια του χώνευαν σ' αφηρημάδα θολή. Αδειανές που ήταν αυτές οι μέρες! Από μικρός τις γιορτάδες τις φοβότανε, αντίθετα από τ' άλλα τα παιδιά. Στάλαζαν στην καρδιά του μια χαύνωση λυπητερή, ανεξήγητη θλίψη. Πώς θα περνούσαν όλες αυτές οι ώρες ίσαμε το βράδυ, Θε μου, κι ίσαμ' αύριο;”
Angelos Terzakis, Η μενεξεδένια πολιτεία

Stefan Zweig
“Why love the healthy, confident, proud and happy?They don't need it. They take love as their rightful due, as the duty owed to them, they accept it indifferently and arrogantly. Other people's devotion is just another gift to them, a clasp to wear in the hair, a bangle for the wrist, not the whole meaning and happiness of their lives. Love can truly help only those not favoured by fate, the distressed and disadvantaged, those who are less than confident and not beautiful, the meek-minded. When love is given to them it makes up for what life has taken away. They alone know how to love and be loved in the right way, humbly and with gratitude.”
Stefan Zweig

Άγγελος Τερζάκης
“Είτανε μιά από τις εξαντλητικές εκείνες, τις υπεράνθρωπες νίκες, που αν δεν τις έτρωγε η αφάνεια της καθημερινής ζωής, αν είτανε δυνατό να γίνουν με κάθε τους λεπτομέρεια γνωστές, θα κινούσαν το θαυμασμό. Έτσι, συχνά, για τα μέτρια αποτελέσματα, χρειάζεται να χυθεί ο αιματερός ιδρώτας, όταν οι μεγάλες πράξεις γίνονται με μια χειρονομία απλή.”
Άγγελος Τερζάκης, Η μενεξεδένια πολιτεία

Arundhati Roy
“Can the hungry go on a hunger strike? Non-violence is a piece of theatre. You need an audience. What can you do when you have no audience?
People have the right to resist annihilation”
Arundhati Roy

Albert Camus
“When one has once had the good luck to love intensely, life is spent in trying to recapture that ardour and that illumination.”
Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays
