61 " Stari su snovi bili lijepi snovi; nisu se ispunili, ali sretan sam što sam ih imao. "
― Robert James Waller , The Bridges of Madison County
62 " [...] wondering about a man to whom the difference between a pasture and a meadow seemed important, [...] who seemed like the wind. And moved like it. Came from it, perhaps. "
63 " Не че не ценеше физическата красота, ала за него важни бяха само натрупаните с житейския опит интелигентност и плам, способността да се вълнуваш и да вълнуваш с изтънчен дух и ум. Ето защо повечето млади жени, колкото и красиви да бяха, не го привличаха. Те не бяха живели достатъчно дълго, за да притежават качествата, които го интересуваха. "
64 " I’ll never say it another time, to anyone, and I ask you to remember it: In a universe of ambiguity, this kind of certainty comes only once, and never again, no matter how many lifetimes you live. "
65 " maudlin makes it difficult to enter the realm of gentleness "
66 " Анализът накърнява целостта. Някои неща,магическите неща трябва да си останат непокътнати. Взреш ли се в съставките им,те изчезват. "
67 " One of his high school teachers wrote the following in an evaluation of him: "He believes that 'IQ tests are a poor way to judge people's abilities, failing as they do to account for magic, which has its own importance, both by itself and as a complement to logic,' I suggest a conference with his parents.' (pg. 11) "
68 " I want to keep it forever. I want to love you the way I do now the rest of my life. Don't you understand... we'll lose it if we leave. I can't make an entire life disappear to start a new one. All I can do is try to hold onto to both. Help me. Help me not lose loving you. "
69 " I don't want to need you, 'cause I can't have you. "
70 " I just stand here, about twilight, makin’ that ol’ horn weep, and I play that tune for a man named Robert Kincaid and a woman he called Francesca. "
71 " You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you "
72 " He had been here just a few minutes before,she was lying where the water had run down his body,and she found that intensely erotic.Almost everything about Robert Kincaid had begun to seem erotic to her. "
73 " U jednom svijetu punom dvosmislenosti ovakva se izvjesnost događa samo jedanput i nikada više, ma koliko života čovjek proživio. "
74 " ...the easy way he moved his body, old ways, disturbing ways, ways that draw you in. Ways that whisper to you in the final moment before sleep comes, when the barriers have fallen. "
75 " In an increasingly callous world, we all exist with our own carapaces of scabbed-over sensibilities. Where great passion leaves off and mawkishness begins, I’m not sure. But our tendency to scoff at the possibility of the former and to label genuine and profound feelings as maudlin makes it difficult to enter the realm of gentleness required to understand the story of Francesca Johnson and Robert Kincaid. "
76 " Rilke "
77 " Her abstinence from her recollections had been a matter of survival. "
78 " Uno es lo que produce. "
79 " Yet in a world where personal commitment in all of its forms seems to be shattering and love has become a matter of convenience, they both felt this remarkable tale was worth the telling. "
80 " To covered bridges in the late afternoon, or, better yet, on warm red mornings. "
