Milos Quotes

Author: Bertolt Brecht

2. "The friends of Galtieri, Saddam Hussein, Mullah Omar and Milosevic make unconvincing defenders of humanitarian values, and it can be seen that their inept and sometimes inane arguments lack either the principles or the seriousness that are required in such debates."
Author: Christopher Hitchens

5. "Materialism is a conviction based not upon evidence or logic but upon what Carl Sagan (speaking of another kind of faith) called a "deep-seated need to believe." Considered purely as a rational philosophy, it has little to recommend it; but as an emotional sedative, what Czeslaw Milosz liked to call the opiate of unbelief, it offers a refuge from so many elaborate perplexities, so many arduous spiritual exertions, so many trying intellectual and moral problems, so many exhausting expressions of hope or fear, charity or remorse. In this sense, it should be classified as one of those religions of consolation whose purpose is not to engage the mind or will with the mysteries of being but merely to provide a palliative for existential grievances and private disappointments. Popular atheism is not a philosophy but a therapy."
Author: David Bentley Hart

6. "Varljivo je brdo Život, nema šta... I veruci se Uz i silazeci Niz patimo za predelima s one strane vrha, a vrh je senka, tren, senka trena, Vrh je najveca prevara u citavoj prici...Cim ga dotaknemo on potone tromo, kao lubenica na vodi, i vec sledeceg trena izroni nam za ledima, obeshrabrujuce uzvodno, plutajuci kao velika crna bova koja iz nekih zvezdanih razloga obeležava to razvede Vremena Koje Nam Je Dato, vremena koje nam je udeljeno, ubogima, kao milostinja pred Crkvom Beskonacnog...Danas je uveliko išcekuješ, a vec sutra ti ostaje samo da se secaš, i tek na kraju ukapiraš da su Prave Stvari uvek s one strane brda, ali ovu misao ipak ne smem pripisati sebi...Zvuci suviše poznato?Neki voštani mandarin iz treceg milenijuma pre nove ere je sigurno još davno patentirao slicnu izreku"
Author: Ðorde Balaševic

7. "Milos said, You're my first choice. From my point of view, that doesn't pay the rent. I said, Tell me what I have to do next because I'm busy painting my kitchen."
Author: F. Murray Abraham

8. "Milosevic will never stop, because he is fighting for personal power in Serbia. The only way to stop him is cutting the functioning of his war machine. He is spending $1.7 million a day on his war machine in Kosovo."
Author: Fatos Nano

9. "But we acted pre-emptively in Kosovo in 1999 to stop Milosevic from doing what he was doing and increasingly doing the ethnic cleansing in a systematic way."
Author: Lord Robertson

10. "Osvojila mi je srce poput nemilosrdnoga vojskovode i sad sam rob misli i osjecaja kojima ne mogu vladati.Misli mi lutaju u pravcima koje ne odabirem sam i obuzimaju me napadi tjeskobe kojima ne znam izvor.Umirem od želje da je vidim,da razgovaram s njom,da je pogledam u oci..."
Author: Mahbod Seraji

11. "Najviše pozornosti treba posvetiti puku, a dosljedno tome njegovoj zemlji, iz koje sve proizlazi, u koju se sve vraca. Nazor manjine da je primila svoje privilegije po milosti Božjoj u svoju vlast jednako je apsurdan kao što bi bio apsurdan vladar koji bi sebi utvarao da zemlja kojom vlada pripada njemu, a ne državljanima; kad bi si vladar utvarao da su milijuni stvoreni za njega. Jer zapravo je vladar ovdje samo zato da milijunima služi! Vladar nije ništa drugo nego vrhovni cinovnik države. Vladar, to nije cast, to je dužnost prema narodu."
Author: Marija Jurić Zagorka

12. "Oh, znao sam: gonilo me, ranjavalo, razdiralo srce. Kad bi pala tiha noc i zvijezde zatreperile na nebu, moje srce dolazilo bi tiho, pritajeno šuljajuci se k meni, moleci me milost da budem dobar, da se sjetim njegovih patnji, da popustim njegovim osjecajima, dopustim mu samo nekoliko suza kojima bi se olakšalo cežnju za onom koja se uvukla u nj i tamo se zakovala..."
Author: Marija Jurić Zagorka

13. "Sure, they say, we may not live in a condition of perfect Goodness. But we're lucky that we don't live in a condition of Evil. Our democracy is not perfect. But it's better than the bloody dictatorships. Capitalism is unjust. But it's not criminal like Stalinism. We let millions of Africans die of AIDS, but we don't make racist nationalist declarations like Milosevic. We kill Iraqis with our airplanes, but we don't cut their throats with machetes like they do in Rwanda, etc."
Author: Mark Fisher

14. "The kiss was the definition of perfect. True, it lacked the heat, the passion, the breathlessness of the living-world kiss she had given Milos, but this had something greater. More than a flash of fire, it had an unbreakable, perhaps eternal bond of connection. Mikey had transformed back into himself by the end of the kiss, and the moment their lips parted he knew, as he should have known long, long ago, that no one - not Milos, not another Afterlight, not anyone in any world - could ever come between him and Allie, from now until the day they met their maker."
Author: Neal Shusterman

15. "I know there is moral outage in regard to Mr. Milosevic, and that is certainly justified. But what about our response?"
Author: Pat Roberts

16. "Wasn't Saddam destroyed? Wasn't Gaddafi liquidated? Didn't Milosevic go to the Hague? All true. But Stalin survived. Kim Jong-un isn't doing too badly, either - though that's probably because he actually has nuclear weapons, as opposed to Iran which might or might not be trying to acquire them and thus remains on the Israeli-American target list."
Author: Robert Fisk

17. "It should be clear to all, after the past ten years, that NATO isn't attacking Serbia because of Milosevic; it is attacking Milosevic because of Serbia."
Author: Slobodan Milosevic

18. "He was driven by the idea that when Milosevic grabs a part of Bosnia, Croatia should get a piece of it, too."
Author: Stjepan Mesic

19. "The army did what Milosevic's regime asked of it, which was to create a 'Greater Serbia'."
Author: Stjepan Mesic

20. "I think it was Milosz, the Polish poet, who when he lay in a doorway and watched the bullets lifting the cobbles out of the street beside him realised that most poetry is not equipped for life in a world where people actually die. But some is."
Author: Ted Hughes

21. "I met Milos in 1967. I was working on a student film. And there is Milos Forman. So that's how I met Milos."
Author: Vincent Schiavelli

22. "I'm very skeptical about the good intentions of Milosevic."
Author: Warren Christopher
