“В какъв грозен свят сме пратили това дете.
Цял живот ли ще отговаря на глупави въпроси?
Що за простотия е това: Колко обичаш някого?
Колко! Колко! Колко! Колко!
Мозъците ни до такава степен са промити от метри, секунди, килограми, литри, щото почваме да си мислим, че и любовта можем да измерим.
Затова и децата ни вдигат ръце от нас. Защото постоянно ги изправяме до стената и ги разстрелваме с тъпите си въпроси : Горе ръцете! Как се казваш? Кого обичаш? Колко?
из "Зимна ябълка”
― Иво Сиромахов, Очила

“Whether it is labeled as sacred versus profane, gospel versus blues, God’s work versus the devil’s music, the classic (and still pervasive) African-American paradigm that holds church matters and popular culture in diametric opposition, that separates true spirituality from such music as jazz, held no sway in Coltrane’s self-erected system. How could it, when he had found salvation through a saxophone? With the clarity of youth, he divined a common source—and common goal—to both pursuits.”
― Ashley Kahn, A Love Supreme: The Story of John Coltrane's Signature Album

“Margarita was never short of money. She could buy whatever she liked. Her husband had plenty of interesting friends. Margarita never had to cook. Margarita knew nothing of the horrors of living in a shared flat. In short... was she happy? Not for a moment.”
― Mikhail Bulgakov, The Master and Margarita
