“I loved you because there was no other place for me to go. We were married because we did not know what else to do with each other. You never knew me, nothing about me, what died inside me, what lived invisibly.”

“Uvijek sam se pitala zašto ljudi ne podižu spomenike krumpiru, na primjer. Ali ne, čovjek, ta podanička kreatura, najradije podiže spomenike svojim političarima. Pritom ga krupir hrani, a političari ga upropaštavaju. Tvrdoglavi ljudski primjerak i dalje diže spomenike svojim herojima, za koje se na kraju ispostavlja da su bili kriminalci. Što ćemo, čovjekova duša je konobarska, uvijek spremna da služi i bez napojnice.”
― Dubravka Ugrešić, Napad na minibar

“I say the same thing about the death of James Wait. "Oh, well -- he wasn't going to write the Beethoven's Ninth Symphony anyway.”
― Kurt Vonnegut, Galápagos

“My soul is impatient with itself, as with a bothersome child; its restlessness keeps growing and is forever the same. Everything interests me, but nothing holds me.”
― Fernando Pessoa
