Chci si obléct levandulové punčochy s červenými sametovými rajtkami a k tomu zelený dublet se žlutými pruhy, na rameno si zavěsit světlemodrý hedvábný plášť a za klobouk vetknout černé orlí péro, a také mít velký meč a jestřába a kopí a skotačícího koně, abych mohl jezdit mezi lidi a těšit jejich zraky. Proč bychom se měli všichni snažit vypadat jako mravenci ploužící se přes hromadu mouru? Proč bychom se nemohli oblékat trochu živěji? Jsem přesvědčený, že kdybychom to udělali, byli bychom šťastnější. Ano, je to banalita, ale my jsme banální rasa, a k čemu je dobré předstírat něco jiného a být za kazisvěty? Ať se jako havrani oblékají filozofové, pokud se jim chce. Mně však dovolte být motýlem.”",
