Colm Toibin Quote
А междувременно имам само тази къща,тази светлина, тази свобода, и ще прекарвам времето, стига да имам нужната смелост, в съзерцаване на морето, ще отбелязвам промените му и звуците, които издава, ще изучавам хоризонта, ще слушам вятъра или ще се наслаждавам на тишината, когато е тихо. И дори в най-дълбоките си сънища няма да летя твърде близо до слънцето или твърде ниско над морето. Възможността за всичко това вече е отминала.
