“Нi! я жива! Я буду вiчно жити! Я в серцi маю те, що не вмирає.”
― Леся Українка, Лісова пісня

“Кохання - як вода, - плавке та бистре, рве, грає, пестить, затягає й топить.

Де пал - воно кипить, а стрiне холод - стає мов камiнь. От моє кохання!

А те твоє - солом'яного духу дитина квола. Хилиться од вiтру, пiд ноги стелеться. Зострiне iскру - згорить не борючись, а потiм з нього лишиться чорний згар та сивий попiл.

Коли ж його зневажать, як покидьку, воно лежить i кисне, як солома, в водi холоднiй марної досади, пiд пiзнiми дощами каяття.”
