[Reyhan Aygün]

Sen tekrar tekrar çalınan tek bir notadan fazlasısın
Sen bir senfonisin
Gittiğin tüm yerlerden koparılmış seslersin; ve karşılaştığın tüm insanlardan ve hissettiğin tüm duygulardan.
Sen mavilersin, pembelersin, yalnızlıksın, kahkahasın, zamanla biriken uyumsuz parçalardan dikilmiş bir tür renk cümbüşüsün.
