“A writer never forgets the first time he accepted a few coins or a word of praise in exchange for a story. He will never forget the sweet poison of vanity in his blood and the belief that, if he succeeds in not letting anyone discover his lack of talent, the dream of literature will provide him with a roof over his head, a hot meal at the end of the day, and what he covets the most: his name printed on a miserable piece of paper that surely will outlive him. A writer is condemned to remember that moment, because from then on he is doomed and his soul has a price.”
― Carlos Ruiz Zafon, The Angel's Game

“за предавство потребен е страв, за одмазда љубов, за умирање живот, а за копнеење - отсуство поприсутно од присуството треба да се има. Се копнее по нешто што нетука е, а секој миг пред очите ти е; нетука а тука - тоа ти бил копнежот.”
― Venko Andonovski, Вештица

“Don't be afraid to be confused. Try to remain permanently confused. Anything is possible. Stay open, forever, so open it hurts, and then open up some more, until the day you die, world without end, amen.”

“Љубов постои. Не секаде, не секогаш, но постои. Тоа е најважниот личен вселенски настан: како пронаоѓање на опашеста ѕвезда, твоја опашеста ѕвезда која никој друг не ја гледа.”
― Venko Andonovski, Вештица

“That scares me... you scare me... I am completly caught up in your spell, considering a lifestyle with you that I didn't even know existed until last week, and then you write something like that and I want to run screaming into the hills. I won't of course, because I'd miss you. Really miss you. I want us to work, but I am terrified of the dept of feeling I have for you and the dark path you're leading me down. What you are offering is erotic and sexy, and I'm curious, but I'm also scared you'll hurt me- physically and emotionally. After threee months you could say good-bye, and where will that leave me if you do?”
― E L James, Fifty Shades of Grey
