Historical-romance Quote by Marija Jurić Zagorka
““Sve je iščezlo iz njegova osjećaja, samo je ostalo ono što ga veže s njome. Sav svijet nekud je nestao, samo je ona živa. Sve mu je mračno, samo njezine oči svijetle. Sve je crno, samo njezino lice je bijelo. Svi su zanijemjeli, samo njezin glas romoni oko njega, po dvorcu, kao žubor potočića niz brdo guste šume...””
