Quotes by Igor Štiks  (?)

“I wrote her name in the sand, left coded messages on trees, believed in the compatibility of souls, was sad when she didn't appear for meetings to which I hadn't invited her. In short, I was in love.”
Igor Štiks, A Castle in Romagna

“Interesting, I thought, a new chapter is opening, buttressed by some old foundations, so let us stride into this life as if it were the dwelling of an old friend, gladly and freely.”
Igor Štiks, The Judgment of Richard Richter

“a discovery like the tip of an iceberg, whose invisible, vaster part lay in wait for me in Sarajevo, and into which I would crash full speed, at a velocity of fifty years of lies.”
Igor Štiks, The Judgment of Richard Richter
