“Ne vjerujem da mi je unaprijed zapisan put kojim ću proći, jer ne vjerujem u neki naročit red ovoga svijeta. Ne odlučujemo, već se zatičemo. Strmoglavljeni smo u igru, punu nebrojenih izmjena, jednog određenog trenutka, kad nas samo ta prilika čeka, jedina koja nas može sačekati, u toku miješanja. Ne možes je zaobići, ni odbiti. Tvoja je, kao voda u koju padneš. Pa plivaš, ili potones.”
― Meša Selimović, The Fortress
