Toga Quote by Borislav Pekić
““1. Primerci kod kojih se uoči neobično ponašanje ili za koje se sumnja da su bez zaštitne odeće dolazili u dodir s primercima neobičnog ponašanja, likvidiraće se kao besni. 2. Svako je dužan prijavljivati primerke koji se neobično ponašaju. Propuštanje da se to učini smatraće se neobičnim ponašanjem i likvidirati kao besno. (Primedbu dr Tare, veterinara s Filipina gde je besnilo endemično, a koga je uzeo za medicinskog konsultanta, kako je u ovoj situaciji, zapravo, neobično ponašati se obično, protumačio je kao neobično ponašanje i lekara likvidirao.)””
