Toga Quote by Miroslav Krleža
““Odonda je prošlo već mnogo vremena a on nije naslikao ništa poslije ona dva-tri sretna jesenja dana on nije dugo već doživio ništa što bi bilo vrijedno da se uopće doživi vuče se po kavanama živi među ovim dvonošcima koji nose kišobrane i uvijek kada govore govore o nečem stvarnom o kruhu ili o mesu miču čeljustima i zubalima od kaučuka a sve je jalovo i nema nikakvog višeg razloga za opstanak.””
