Toga Quote by Elfriede Jelinek
““ONA se oseća isključeno iz svega, jer je isključena iz svega. Drugi idu dalje, čak se i penju preko nje. Tako malu prepreku predstavlja ona. Putnik odlazi, ali ona ostaje, kao mastan papir od sendviča, da leži na putu, u najboljem slučaju malo vijori na vetru. Papir ne može daleko, on truli na licu mesta. To truljenje zahteva godine, godine bez promena.””
