“Sometimes, my head is just like this storm", said the Tiny Dragon.
"If you listen carefully", said the Great Panda, "you will ear the raindrops hitting the rock. Even in a storm it is possible to find a little peace.”
― Big Panda & Tiny Dragon

“There is always one person who gets under our skin, who knows our weak spots and neuroses and can’t help but go in for the kill. They are the people who wound us the most, because we care so much about what they think. For my mother, that person was PopPop. For me, that person is my mother.”

“The truth is, I am a person who is meant to stay home and read books, maybe have a nice dinner, and then put myself to bed. That is the life I’m built for. It’s all about the setting. When I’m out in public, it’s as if my system gets overwhelmed and instantaneously short-circuits. I turned the phoenix into ashes, by accident, in small ways, all the time.”

“Život u kojem su riječi ljupkost, čestitost, predanost upisane u pradobne činjenice prošlosti materinjeg jezika. Uz njih, ravnopravno, ponosna u svojem ladanjskom vrtu, možda i uz domaćinov bazen, stoji i riječ dokolica. Ona zna da je nekada bila prva pratilja riječi život, da je slijedila prije ili odmah poslije nje. Pripremala je bića za velike događaje, u njezinu krilu rađale su se ideje, ona je otvarala vrata ključnim trenucima velikih biografija i osiguravala vrata ključnim trenucima velikih biografija i osiguravala prostor i vrijeme kasnijim analizama i ocjenama. To je bila dokolica u godinama u kojima je izgovaranje riječi život praćeno ponosom i vjerom. A kad je život postao nešto drugo, nešto što treba izdržavati, u čemu se treba nadmetati, nestalo je i prava na dokolicu. Laptopi, siva izglačana odijela, svilene dizajnerske kravate, šoping centri i restorani brze hrane izgurali su riječ dokolica. Uz sve to ne ide dugo ispijanje kave. Jednostavno, ono ne podnosi brzinu i trenutak.”
