Toga Quote by Gilles Leroy
““Na nebu ih se pojavilo na desetke i kružili su od podneva do ponoći - helikopteri koji nas nisu došli spasiti, već prije prisustvovati našem kraju: čini se da je bilo koji televizijski kanal, pa makar bio i na drugom kraju zemlje, bio dovoljno dobro organiziran i bogat da bi doletio do nas i uspio u onome u čemu vlada prve svjetske velesile nije uspjela. Dobro smo znali da nas naše vodstvo ne voli. Ali da nas ne voli do te mjere, to nismo znali: naš um nije bio dovoljno mračan da bismo zamislili toliki stupanj ravnodušnosti.””
