“— Де ви, панно, сьогодні гуляли? — спитав він.
— Розважалася, — сказала вона. — З козаками.
— І як?
— Добре. Усі живі. Я бачила Ангела.
— З крилами?
— Ні, замість крил у нього за плечима була рушниця.”

“Стань блукачем, бродягою стань, та тільки не рабом домашнього мотлоху" (Муталіб Усманов цитує слова давнього мудреця)”
Василь Шкляр, Тінь Сови

“... правда і чесність теж бувають егоїстичними, не позірними і не вдаваними, а саме егоїстичними, коли людина робить добро задля когось і водночас задля себе самої, зробить і милується, тішиться: ось який я хороший, не те що інші. А він же, цей поклик робити добро, мусить бути в самій природі людини, щоб, творячи добро, вона й не помічала цього, не зіставляла його ні з чим, не мислила нічого іншого, бо іншого ж і бути не може.”
Василь Шкляр, Тінь Сови
