““Reda-mi atunci acele timpuri Cand insumi mai eram in devenire, Cand un izvor nastea fara-ncetare Cantari atatea, de iubire, Cand negura-nvalea taramul Si-un mugur promitea minuni, Cand flori rupeam prin vai o mie Si le-azvarleam dupa lastuni. N-aveam nimic si totusi multe, Placeri gaseam in amagire, Porniri spre adevar inalt. Reda-mi adanca fericire, Reda-mi iubirea, chinul, ura, Cu tinerete laolalt'!””

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
