Toga Quote by Francis Scott Fitzgerald
““Dok je došao u Zurich s manje Ahilovih peta nego što treba da se opremi stonoga, ali ipak s mnogima - gajio je iluzije o vječnoj snazi i zdravlju, kao i o suštinskoj dobroti ljudi - bile su to iluzije čitavog jednog naroda, laži pokoljenja graničarskih majki koje su morale prijetvorno pjevušiti kako nema vukova pred vratima brvnare.””
