""Stalno zapažaj da sve stvari zauzimaju mesto promenom i navikavaj se na pomisao da priroda sveta ništa toliko ne voli kao da menja stvari koje jesu i da stvara nove stvari poput njih. Jer sve što postoji na neki način je seme onoga što će biti."" — Jun 17, 2020 02:09PM

"“Zlo je neobičan stvor, puno razmišljam o tome. Kad se skriva, ne možeš dokazati da postoji. Kad izadje na vidjelo, dobiva vlastitu gravitaciju. Nešto je pokrenuto davno prije nas i mi to šutke kočimo, kočimo čitavih života. Znamo da tako valja, pa učimo i djecu da nastave kočiti nakon nas. Ali se i trošimo, jer nam mir nije prirodno stanje.”" — Jan 22, 2023 12:24PM

But from where the stars are watching, there is almost no difference between varieties of alive, between me and the newly mown grass I'm lying on right now. We are both astonishments, the closest thing in the know universe to a miracle.”
