“Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities, the political, the religious, the educational authorities who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing, forming in our minds their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable, open-mindedness; chaotic, confused, vulnerability to inform yourself.”

“U duboki i zagonetni bunar njenog pogleda ubacio sam šapat jednog malog poljupca, kao sjajni srebrni novčić, ali on je zalutao negde na dugom putu do dna...

“..Ona se verovatno tačno seća na kom smo se sastanku poljubili?...
Ja, priznajem, ne... Jer svoj život sam počeo da brojim tek od tog poljupca, pa nadalje...
Bilo je od našeg prvog izlaska milion penala, onih filmskih situacija, pri susretu, u kolima, na stepeništu, ali nekako sam se plašio da je poljubim, slutio sam da bi to moglo da pokvari sve? I bio sam u pravu...
Prvim poljupcem, kao tamnocrvenim carskim pečatom, u momentu je poništila haotičnu hrpu mojih uspomena, i iz pretenciozne Biografije Mog Momčenja prezrivo iscepila sve one stranice na kojima se pominju devojke, ljubav, strast... Koliko samo promašenih tema? Iz jedne naizgled prozaične popodnevne gužve nadošla je lagano i nezadrživo, kao talas, osmehnula se, potopila me zagrljajem, i tiho se povukla ka tamnoj pučini svoje tajanstvenosti...
Da...
A more ume nemilosrdno da se primiri...
Katkad me, eto, oseka danima i danima ostavi nasukanog i samog...
Ali delići Onog Talasa zapali su u svaku božiju pukotinu Ove Stare Stene...
I, ma šta da se desi...
U meni će zauvek ostati ona so...”
