Toga Quote by Alessandro D'Avenia
““Zašto tražim samoću, a kada se utapam u njezinoj bjelini bez uporišta, prestrašim se? Zašto želim da mi tko baci pojas za spašavanje, a onda ne poduzimam ništa da se uhvatim za nj? Možda ću razumjeti svoje sposobnosti i snove, ali nikada neću znati doista nešto učiniti. Bit ću utopljenik koji ne dopušta da mu pomognu.””
