"mitologię, jako zbiór pouczających opowieści, które pomagają żyć"

-Olga Tokarczuk, The Empusium: A Health Resort Horror Story

"Ojciec często powtarzał mu (...) że kobiety są z natury swojej zdradliwe i chwiejne. Rozmazane."

-Olga Tokarczuk, The Empusium: A Health Resort Horror Story

"To proste - myślał Mieczyś Wojnicz, łykając łzy, które mieszały się z krwią zwierzęcia w jego wątłym ciele - być mężczyzną to nauczyć się ignorować to, co sprawia kłopot. Oto cała tajemnica."

-Olga Tokarczuk, The Empusium: A Health Resort Horror Story

"Wojnicz już zauważył, że każda dyskusja, czy szło o demokrację, czy o piąty wymiar, czy o rolę religii socjalizm, Europę, wreszcie sztukę nowoczesną, wszystko w końcu sprowadzało się do kobiet"
