Quotes

 * Някой беше казал, че хармонията на човека се постига, когато душата и тялото са на едно място. За мен такава ситуация не съществува откак се помня. Май съм повече полифонична личност: живея в няколко измерения и това ми харесва.
 * Translation from Bulgarian: Someone said that human harmony is achieved when the body and the soul are at the same place. For me, this situation has not existed since I can remember. I am more of a polyphonic person: I live in several dimensions and I like it.
