“Typhus was raging and even some at the Danish consulate were infected.... The pharmacies, running out of medicines, sold Orthodox amulets, and people were instructed to tie their sleeves tightly at the wrist so as to prevent lice from creeping in. Former ladies-in-waiting were sleeping on the floor, with eleven former aristocrats sharing one room. A feeling of doom was spreading all over the city, like typhus itself.”

“Ništa nije proučavao tako kao to lice i ni u što nije polagao takve nade (iako je to zahtijevalo priličan napor) kao u to lice. Bilo je slično majčinu ali, kako je Jaromil bio muškarac, finoća crta bila je mnogo upadljivija - imao je lijepo oblikovan malen nos i sitnu, neznatno uvučenu bradu. Ta ga je brada mučila najviše jer je pročitao poznatu Schopenhauerovu tvrdnju da je unazad povučena brada odvratna, jer se čovjek razlikuje od majmuna upravo po izbačenoj bradi. Onda je negdje pronašao Rilkeovu sliku i ustanovio da je i on imao uvučenu bradu; to mu je pružilo utjehu i poticaj. Dugo je promatrao svoju sliku u ogledalu očajnički se koprcajući u golemu prostranstvu između majmuna i Rilkea.”

“I’m actually not a tactile person,” Fiona said. That was such a big lie she couldn’t look him in the eye. Not a tactile person. All her powers were concentrated in the most intimate tactile experience possible. Armando's grin split even wider. “I’d love the chance to prove you wrong.”

“I've learned that to be courageous is to feel fear within, every step of the way. Courage does not take over, it fights and struggles through every word you say and every step you take. It's a battle or a dance as to whether to let it pervade. It takes courage to overcome, but it takes extreme fear to be courageous.”
