“Šī pasaule ir manas mājas. Šeit es izvēlos cilvēku, kurš mani vēros daudz dienu un nakšu, – vai to sauc par mīlestību? Esmu piekususi. Priecīga. Tad – skumja. Saplosītiem vaibstiem, neglīta un laimīga. Jauna. Pusmūža. Un veca. Un kāds grib mani vērot. Arī tādu. Visādu. Vienmēr. Mīlestība. Varbūt tas ir vērojums?”

“Mīlestība nav tavā varā. Tā atnāk un ir tevī. Un tu savādāk nevari. Tu atkal esi viena gabala. Tev nav jautājumu.”
