“- Товаришко, - відповідав Сніжок, - стрічки, які тебе так обходять, є ознакою рабства. Невже ти не розумієш, що свобода куди дорожча за стрічки?”

“मैं जानता हूं तुम मुझसे खुश नहीं हो पर जानता हूं एक दिन तो आएगा जब मैं भी तुम्हारे लिये सब कुछ बन जाऊंगा जैसे तुम हो मेरे लिये, जानता हूं धारा मुझे यहां अचानक देखकर तुम शॉक हो, शायद यही मेरी गलती है बिना वजह यूं ही टपक जाता हूं तुम्हारी लाइफ में, पर पता नहीं क्यों इतनी बार दूर जाने के बाद भी तुमसे अलग नहीं हो पाता...." - 'प्‍यार मुझसे जो किया तुमने' गीता शर्मा”

“İşte gene senin o "ya hep ya hiç" anlayışın. Sana biraz geniş ve esnek olmayı öğretemeyeceğim. Sana göre hayatta iki türlü anlayış vardır. Ya bir şeye karşı çıkarsın, ya da benimsersin. Arası yok! Ağbin de öyle! O karşı çıkıyor. Anladığım kadarıyla, karşı çıkmayı o kadar ileri götürmüş ki, en sonunda yaşamaya bile karşı çıkar olmuş.”

“A quote from Reggie van Riet, one of the main characters, which sums up the power dynamics on Robben Island: “ What a fool he’d been to think fair play counted for something with the men who were in charge of the Island! Officially of course, that was only Saunders and the Commissioner, but Mr Wade was in charge of the all-important government ferry from the mainland, and Mr Gubb was in charge of the stores that arrived. They were all in it together, behaving like the rulers of kingdoms he had read about as a child. He gave a bitter laugh. And what a kingdom it was! This miserable collection of society’s outcasts and junior officials who dared not oppose their authority!”

“Ana supposes she should be thankful for the anguish in her life. She should appreciate the formative pain forced on her under the guise of necessity and be grateful for the endless cycle of endings and beginnings. Death and resurrection. Every new experience ended in the death of her former self. The first time Ana had died was the night she was taken. That night marked the death of her innocence and the beginning of her new life. Her immaturity had been the next thing she had to sacrifice. Hardening herself in order to survive, sharpening her resolve and suppressing her disdain. Learning to inflict pain—training to kill. The day she met Katya was the only death she had welcomed. Katya reminded her there was life beyond the academy. Those crimson curls, a mirror image of the mother she had lost. Hope. Katya was hope. The last time she had died was the morning she escaped. Desperation had led her down a dark path. Her morals had been the last part of herself she had killed in order to live. The minor aches and pains seem so mundane in comparison now.”
