Quotes About Night

Bilo je vreme dozrelih vru?ina kad se dan i no? gotovo i ne razlikuju, samo što mesec smeni sunce, a u svako doba dana i no?i se podjednako radi i šeta, jede i peva. Vreme kad se o životu može pomisliti sve, osim da prolazi. Vreme kad prvo grož?e nagrne u grad i kad koštica u vo?u po?inje da crni.
