Toga Quote by Roger Zelazny
““Sve dok nisam došao do čarobne riječi. Amber. (...) Riječ bijaše nabijena strahovitom čežnjom i golemom nostalgijom. Imala je, zamotan u sebi, osjećaj zaboravljene ljepote, grandioznih dostignuća i moći užasne i gotovo konačne. Nekako, ta je riječ pripadala mom rječniku. I nekako, ja bijah dio nje, a ona dio mene. Bijaše to ime mjesta, znao sam, mjesta koje sam nekoć poznavao. Ali nije izazivala nikakve slike, samo osjećaje.””
