“Na kraju - kažem na kraju, a trebalo je da prođu godine patnji, rastanaka, raskida - uvideli smo da su nam životi vezani zauvek i da svojim slabim ljudskim snagama ne možemo ništa ni protiv svoje ljubavi ni protiv prepreka koje joj stoje na putu.”

“‎Bejah zauzet čitanjem i pisanjem, kad grunu u moju sobu velik broj tih ljudi naoružanih neznanjem tupim kao batina i mržnjom oštrom poput noža. To ne bejahu moje svile od kojih im se zakrvaviše oči, no moje knjige poređane po policama; svilu smotaše pod ogrtače, a knjige pobacaše na pod i stadoše ih gaziti nogama i cepati ih na moje oči. A knjige te bejahu u kožu povezane i obeležene brojevima i bejahu napisane od učenih ljudi, i u njima bejaše, da su ih hteli čitati, hiljade razloga da me smesta ubiju i bejaše u njima, da su ih hteli čitati, leka i melema za njihovu mržnju. I rekoh im da ih ne cepaju, jer mnoge knjige nisu opasne, opasna je samo jedna; i rekoh im da ih ne cepaju, jer čitanje mnogih knjiga dovodi do mudrosti, a čitanje jedne jedine do neznanja naoružanog mahnitošću i mržnjom.”
― Danilo Kiš, A Tomb for Boris Davidovich

“Mi nesrazmjerno više govorimo, nego što radimo. Mnogi imaju tu osobinu da misle da su uradili, kad su govorili. Dalje, mahom više polažu na pravo da govore no na pravo da rade. Ja sam često pravio opservaciju, da je mnogim našim ljudima glavno da se izgovore, a posebno da nekoga predstave u rđavoj svjetlosti i da naprave dosetku na njegov račun, a razuman čovek može voditi i raspraviti stvar kako hoće – onima prvima, izgleda nije do toga toliko stalo; glavno je da su oni riječima dosta učinili i sebe zadovoljili. Možda u tu grupu spada i to, što su mnogi naši zadovoljni, kad su ustanovili načela rada ili upravo napisali programe, zadovoljni su toliko, da posle ne misle ozbiljno o akciji i konsekvencijama, koje su upravo sve, prvo je bez drugog besposlica.”
― Jovan Cvijic

“Ta i ta devojka, recimo, kao i svi drugi, ima svog idealnog muškarca; samo, nevolja je ta što ona živi u Rumuniji, a on je Eskim. Koje su šanse da se sretnu? A znali bi, sve bi im bilo jasno kad bi se samo sreli...ali se naprosto neće sresti. Njihovi životi postaće ljubavno promašeni. A kad promašiš ljubav, šta onda uopšte možeš da pogodiš?”
