“Elle était libre comme les arbres, comme les vagues du Danube, comme le vent, comme les oiseaux. Elle était Tinka, l'enfant libre d'une race libre, une race qui n'était pas enchaînée par les entrelacs de la civilisation. La seule race qui n'était pas entrée dans le creuset du monde ni devenue un composant de son alliage”
Konrad Bercovici, Ghitza and Other Romances of Gypsy Blood

“D’habitude les femmes tzignes ne sont pas musiciennes, mais la fille de Kosta, Tinka, faisait exception. Elle avait pratiqué secrètement le violon, et à l’âge de dix ans elle surprit toute la tribu d’un exploit qu’ils n’oublieraient jamais.”
Konrad Bercovici

“Diriger, selon Murdo, c’est faciliter le cours de la vie, pas lui faire barrage.”
Konrad Bercovici, Ghitza and Other Romances of Gypsy Blood
