Toga Quote by Safer Grbić
““Čovjek upozorava čovjeka na zlo koje se krije kod nekog drugog čovjeka, a pri tome zaboravlja na zlo koje se krije u samom negovom biću. Kako čovjek može poznavati bolje nekoga drugog nego li samoga sebe?! Upozori osobu koja ti je već toliko draga da se pazi zla koje se krije u tvojim prsima - tek tada ćeš pokazati istinsko prijateljstvo. Također, posavjetuj svojega voljenog da se pazi zla koje je pri njemu samome i moli za njega u noćnim satima dugo. Neće niko odgovarati za zlo drugog čovjeka nego samo za zlo pri samome sebi. Sobom se pozabavi!””
