Fredrik Backman
“Many people find it difficult living with someone who likes to be alone. It grates on those who can't handle it themselves.”
― Fredrik Backman, A Man Called Ove

Fredrik Backman
“Sonja said once that to understand men like Ove and Rune, one had to understand from the very beginning that they were men caught in the wrong time. Men who only required a few simple things from life, she said. A roof over their heads, a quiet street, the right make of car, and a woman to be faithful to. A job where you had a proper function.”
― Fredrik Backman, A Man Called Ove

Henry Kissinger
“The poet T. S. Eliot captured this in his “Choruses from ‘The Rock’”: Where is the Life we have lost in living? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?”
― Henry Kissinger, World Order

Amos Oz
“Jednom sam ga sreo pred alatnicom. Pitao sam ga što to čita. Slegao je ramenima i neodlučno mi odgovorio:
"Knjigu. Zašto pitaš?"
Pitao sam ga kakvu knjigu čita.
"O jeziku."
Što konkretno?
"Gramatiku za svakoga. Da skinem već jednom s dnevnog reda pravopis i te stvari."
Pa zar se može "knjiga o jeziku" čitati kao i nekakvo štivo koje čitaš da ti prođe vrijeme?
"Riječi i te stvari", poklonio mi je svoj polagani osmijeh, "to ti je isto kao i poznavanje ljudi. Odakle potječu. S kim su u rodu. Kako se svaka od njih ponaša u različitim situacijama. Osim toga", zastao je i poslao desnu ruku na dugo putovanje oko svoje krupne glave da bi se počešao po lijevoj sljepoočnici, nelogična a ipak gotovo kraljevska gesta, - "osim toga, što znači : 'da ti prođe vrijeme', to uopće ne postoji. vrijeme jednostavno ne prolazi."
Ne prolazi? Kako to misliš?
"Šta ja znam? Možda je upravo obratno: da mi prolazimo u vremenu. Šta ja znam? Ili možda vrijeme prolazi u ljudima? Bi li ti se dalo sjesti malo samnom da sortiramo sjeme? Sjeme je u šupi. U hladu. Osim ako ne želiš raditi nešto drugo. Ili bi možda htio slagati prazne vreće?”
― Amos Oz, Black Box

Amos Oz
“And so I learnt the secret of diversity. Life is made up of different avenues. Everything can happen in one of several ways, according to different musical scores and parallel logics. Each of these parallel logics is consistent and coherent in its own terms, perfect in itself, indifferent to all the others. In”
― Amos Oz, A Tale of Love and Darkness
