Sofia

“It was a question that had always haunted me and yet I could never answer it unequivocally. “Where are you from?” Why do people always ask this? What exactly do they expect to hear? They probably want to define a certain cultural frame of reference for themselves, and accordingly, place me in one of their pre-existing templates. This will allow us to carry on a conversation comfortably, but why does everyone think you want to go through this interrogation over and over again?”
― Dmitry Berkut, Clochard

“The most fascinating thing in this world is turning your fantasies into everyday life, merging their intricate blueprint with the pattern of the real world, and redrawing your destiny in alignment with your dreams.”
― Dmitry Berkut, Once Upon a Time in Portugal

“We are all connected by the finest of threads. We create worlds for each other through our existence. When someone close to you dies, it immediately affects everything around you; and everyone’s lives, whether they feel it or not, are changed forever.”
― Dmitry Berkut, Clochard

“I wasn’t meant for reality, but life came and found me.”
― Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet
