"Meslekleri ve durumları gereği, önemli konular hakkında genelde hızlı kararlar almak zorunda kalanlar, gündelik, önemsiz işlerde de, mütevazi ve sakin insanları şaşırtıp, akıllarını karıştıran bir acelecilik gösterirler."

-Ivo Andrić, Omer Pasha Latas: Marshal to the Sultan

"İnsanlar hayatlarını binbir farklı biçimde yaşar, ama ister gizli gizli, tanıksız ve skandalsız, belki de kendi odasında ya da sadece düşüncelerinde veya rüyasında, ister herkesin içinde , törenle, isterse de böyle saçma, utanç verici, canice biçimde olsun, yaşamında bir kez koşmak, her insanın yazgısında vardır. Gerçi bir çok etken rol oynar bunda, ama kendimizden, kendi isteklerimizden ve niyetlerimizden çok kökenlerimize, eğitimimize, bize dayatılan yaşam tarzına ve çeşitli koşullara bağlı olduğu da kesindir. Elimizden bir şey gelmez bu konuda."

-Ivo Andrić, Omer Pasha Latas: Marshal to the Sultan

"Türkiye'de beklemek istemeyen ya da beklemeyi beceremeyen kişi, ne denli yetenekli olursa olsun, hiç bir şey başaramaz ve sinirlerini yıpratmaktan başka bir şey elde edemez; gücünü hızla tüketir, son dostlarını ve koruyucularını da yitirir ve en sonunda kimseye hiç bir yarar sağlamadan, aptalca ölüp gider. Buna karşılık akılsız ve değersiz, ama beklemeyi bilen biri, başka bir deyişle bir hayvan gibi edilgen kalabilecek, sinsice tek gözü açık uyuyabilecek kıpırtısızlığa sahip biri hemen her zaman amacına ulaşır; her durumda şansı, bu vasfa sahip olmayan yetenekli ve girişimci insanlardan daha fazladır."
