“Stakleni grad – jesam li ga osjetio? Jesam li ga našao? Kuda me to vodi život? Svatko ima svoj Stakleni grad, svaka osoba, svaka nacija, svaka ideologija, religija. … Tražiti Stakleni grad značilo je tražiti svoj ideal, tražiti sebe.”

“People don't become inured to what they are shown - if that's the right way to describe what happens - because of the quantity of images dumped on them. It is passivity that dulls feeling.

“Compassion is an unstable emotion. It needs to be translated into action, or it withers. The question of what to do with the feelings that have been aroused, the knowledge that has been communicated. If one feels that there is nothing 'we' can do -- but who is that 'we'? -- and nothing 'they' can do either -- and who are 'they' -- then one starts to get bored, cynical, apathetic.”
