Toga Quote by Elfriede Jelinek
““Ona se osjeća isključena iz svega, jer i jest isključena iz svega. Drugi idu naprijed penjući se pritom preko nje. Čini se da je ona jedina prepreka na putu. Šetači prolaze, a ona ostaje ležati poput odbačena zamašćena papira koji otpuhuju naleti vjetra. Zamašćen papir ne može daleko odletjeti; trune ondje gdje je. A proces raspadanja traje godinama, koje se bezlično nižu.””
