Polish Literature

Polish literature is the literary tradition of Poland. Most Polish literature has been written in the Polish language, though other languages, used in Poland over the centuries, have also contributed to Polish literary traditions, including Yiddish, Lithuanian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, German and Esperanto. Until the early 18th century, a major language of Polish literature was Latin, widely popular across all of Western and Central Europe at the time.

Neil Gaiman
Zastanawiałeś się nad tym, co oznacza bycie bogiem? - spytał. Miał brodę i czapeczkę baseballową. - To oznacza odrzucenie egzystencji materialnej i przemianę w mem: coś, co trwa wiecznie w umysłach ludzi, jak dziecięca piosenka. Znaczy to, że każdy odtwarza cię sam w swoim umyśle. Praktycznie nie masz już tożsamości. Stajesz się tysiącem aspektów tego, czego pragną od ciebie ludzie. A każdy pragnie czegoś zupełnie innego. Nic nie jest stałe, nic nie jest niezmienne.
Neil Gaiman, American Gods

Dorota Terakowska
Księgi to też żywi ludzie. To przecież ludzie je stworzyli, oni spisywali je z mozołem i iluminowali. Gdy palisz księgę, to tak, jakbyś palił człowieka.
Dorota Terakowska, Samotność bogów
