Go for it is the only way to be accepted to the circle of cold skulls — Zbigniew Herbert

"And do not forgive indeed it is beyond your power to forgive in the name of those betrayed at dawn"

"And if the City falls and one survives he shall carry the City within on the roads of exile he shall be the City"

"Go where the others have gone, to the tenebrous limit for the golden fleece of void, your ultimate prize go upright among those who are on their knees among those turning their backs on and those fallen to dust."

"Jeśli tematem sztuki będzie dzbanek rozbity mała rozbita dusza z wielkim żalem nad sobą to co po nas zostanie będzie jak płacz kochanków w małym brudnym hotelu kiedy świtają tapety"

"You survived not to live on your time is short, you have to give a proof of truth"

"And now I wont be on any of them group photo (proud proof of my death in all literary weekly magazines in the world) when someone will say, look, you see - its Zbyszek - pointing finger at a man struggling with a suitcase - but thats not it Im someone else who isnt even from this industry there is no me and there is complete emptiness"

"yes is a pleasant country... love is a deeper season than reason"

"true lovers in each happening of their hearts live longer than all which and every who"

"What concerns me fundamentaly is a meteoric burlesk melodrama, born of the immemorial adage love will find a way."

"I am dominated by one thing, an irresistible, burning attraction towards the abstract. The expression of human feelings and the passions of man certainly interest me deeply, but I am less concerned with expressing the motions of the soul and mind than to render visible, so to speak, the inner flashes of intuition which have something divine in their apparent insignificance and reveal magic, even divine horizons, when they are transposed into the marvellous effects of pure plastic art."

"and liars kill their kind but her,my love creates love only our"

"The anxiety to be admired is a loveless passion ... , loud on the hustings, gay in the ball-room, mute and sullen at the family fireside."
