“Najväčšie bitky sa odohrávajú v tichu našich myšlienok.”
“Najčovekolikiji od svih živih bića nisu ljudi, nego oni koji hoće da budu ljudi. Ljudi ponekad mogu biti najmanje čovekoliki. Čovek može biti samo onaj koji hoće da bude čovek. Ako tog htenja nema u nama, čovek se ne pojavljuje, ostaje nedosegnut, unutra i spolja. Čovek može da bude samo onaj koji sve podređuje htenju da što više liči na čoveka, da u sebi i sobom što više približi čoveštvu.
Znaš, nije čovek mera čovekolikosti, nego je čovekolikost mera čoveka.”

“Ayah titip Keke padamu,” pungkas ayah Inneke sembari memberikan pelukan hangat ke arahku.
Aku tahu ia tengah menangis meski pandanganku bersebrangan. Pundakku basah oleh air hangat yang semakin lama makin sembab.

“Nakamura Tempu Sensei viewed the mind as a segment of the body that could not be seen and the body as the element of the mind that was observable.

In like manner, our thoughts will influence the body and our well being.”

How I'd love to kill you —”

“Naked girls with the heads of Marx and Malraux prone and helpless in the glare of the headlights, tried to give them a little joie de vivre but maybe it didn't take, their constant bickering and smallness, it's like a stroke of lightning, the world reminds you of its power, tracheotomies right and left, I am spinning, my pretty child, don't scratch, pick up your feet, the long nights, spent most of my time listening, this is a test of the system, this is only a test.”

“Naked I came into the world, but brush strokes cover me, language raises me, music rhythms me. Art is my rod and staff, my resting place and shield, and not mine only, for art leaves nobody out. Even those from whom art has been stolen away by tyranny, by poverty, begin to make it again. If the arts did not exist, at every moment, someone would begin to create them, in song, out of dust and mud, and although the artifacts might be destroyed, the energy that creates them is not destroyed.”

Lofty solitude, all brow and bright stars, like a huge pallid head, lopped off. Round solitude that leaves in our hands soft lilies of pensive frost.
On the curve of the river I waited long hours for you. I was clean at last of arabesques and fleeting rhythms. Your garden of violets was budding somewhere over the wind, and you shivered there alone, loving yourself…”

It was only with the introduction of cheap cloth from the West, through Goodwill and other Christian organisations, that nakedness began to be associated with shame.”

“Nakedness means freedom, and although dancing on a sun-kissed hillside with shorts on seems pretty similar to dancing with shorts off, there is all the difference in the world. It is as if your clothes take on the weight of your worries and concerns - they come to embody your defences against the world, and if you can feel confident enough and safe enough, then taking them off evokes a powerful sense of liberation, of joy and freedom; and more than that - of innocence and of openness to the world.”
