Anne Morrow Lindbergh
“Out of the welter of life, a few people are selected for us by the accident of temporary confinement in the same circle. We never would have chosen these neighbors; life chose them for us. But thrown together on this island of living, we stretch to understand each other and are invigorated by the stretching. The difficulty with big city environment is that if we select—and we must in order to live and breathe and work in such crowded conditions—we tend to select people like ourselves, a very monotonous diet. All hors d’oeuvres and no meat; or all sweets and no vegetables, depending on the kind of people we are. But however much the diet may differ between us, one thing is fairly certain: we usually select the known, seldom the strange. We tend not to choose the unknown which might be a shock or a disappointment or simply a little difficult to cope with. And yet it is the unknown with all its disappointments and surprises that is the most enriching.”
Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Gift from the Sea

David McRaney
“J. E. Littlewood, a mathematician at Cambridge University, wrote about the law of truly large numbers in his 1986 book, "Littlewood's Miscellany." He said the average person is alert for about eight hours every day, and something happens to the average person about once a second. At this rate, you will experience 1 million events every thirty-five days. This means when you say the chances of something happening are one in a million, it also means about once a month. The monthly miracle is called Littlewood's Law.”
David McRaney, You Are Not So Smart

“In middle school I played against you once. And lost. I was so frustrated that I continued practicing even after I retired... And then when I entered high school, hell yeah, I laughed. The guy I vowed to defeat no matter what was standing right in front of me as one of my own teammates. But now it's pointless to hold a grudge. Rather, I wanted to make you recognize me. (Takao Kazunari)”
Tadatoshi Fujimaki

Blaga Dimitrova
“- Не ме познахте май! - засмя се шофьорът на таксито.

Тя го позна още в първия миг, но не можеше да повярва, че такъв човек съществува. Той бързаше, дори не влезе вътре. Колата го чакала долу с хора. Разказа на крак одисеята на романа. Намерил ръкописа чак в края на смяната си. Съобразил, че в тези страници е вложен доста труд главно от машинописката. Изправен пред невъзможността да ги занесе на притежателя, той се заел да издири адреса чрез семейството в Бояна, пред чиято вила бе запомнил, че е оставил една завеяна пътница. Разбира се, само по предположение, че може би измежду многобройните му и многолики клиенти тя е била злополучната авторка. А може след полунощ на заспиване да е попрочел някоя и друга глава от романа и да е отгатнал зад редовете силуета на една странна птица, неориентирана за посоките на града и света, изгубена и тъжна. И много смешна.

Тя стоеше на прага, изумена и щастлива, не вече от връщането на ръкописа, а от самото откриване на такъв човек. И от нещо друго: в неговото младо, насмешливо лице тя позна чудесния Случай, който й подсказваше, че има смисъл героите й да продължат да живеят - може и на тях да се падне да пътуват с такси № 28-29 из София, карано от един млад, мълчалив по време на пътуването шофьор.

Пожелавам живот.”
Blaga Dimitrova, Лице
