Toga Quote by Susanna Tamaro
““In tudi, ko najdeš svoj pogled, moraš budno paziti, kajti škrat je stalno na preži - ne prenese, da si zbežal iz tistega malega sveta, kamor te je hotel zapreti. Vsadi ti prepričanje, da si nekaj dosegel. Zato si je treba zamašiti ušesa kot Odisej pred sirenami in hoditi naprej.””
