Toga Quote by Ivana Šojat Kuči
““Muškarci su djeca, razulareni klinci koji su u stanju do smrti naklapati o nekakvim snovima, o idealima za koje su pali ili su još spremni za knjih propadati. Žene su jake, one stisnu zube I pregrme svaki užas, prebole svaku bol. Mukarci možda ne plaču, teško im je pustiti suzu. Ali zato, čim ih nešto pogodi, oni padaju ispod šankova, pucaju si u glavu, bacaju se kroz prozore. ””
