Toga Quote by Meša Selimović
““Ne bojim se ljubavi. Bojim se rizika. I zavisnosti. I mogućeg bola... Uvijek si jednom nogom u bjekstvu, uvijek polovinom sebe u ljubavi. Drugu ostavljam u pripravnosti da izvuče ludaka.Ali ta moja necinična polovina mnogo te voli.Toliko da me prevari cijelog..Večeras ti se nudim sav. Reci da me voliš, šta te staje?””
