Toga Quote by Goran Tribuson
““Mislim da otac, uvijek lojalan i progresivan, nije imao ništa protiv protupožarnih propisa o sigurnosti kućnih tavana; on se samo borio protiv zaborava, protiv posvemašnjeg zaborava, znajući da obitelj bez prošlosti i sjećanja i nije obitelj nego zbir anonimnih jedinki.””
