Translation from Bulgarian: Someone said that human harmony is achieved when the body and the soul are at the same place. For me, this situation has not existed since I can remember. I am more of a polyphonic person: I live in several dimensions and I like it.

Някой беше казал, че хармонията на човека се постига, когато душата и тялото са на едно място. За мен такава ситуация не съществува откак се помня. Май съм повече полифонична личност: живея в няколко измерения и това ми харесва.

Translation from Bulgarian: A country in which worthy Bulgarians rescued Jews is not immune to antisemitism.

Translation from Bulgarian: I believe the role of both the journalist and the writer is to analyze critically. Of course, both the writer and the journalist pay a price for this.

Една страна, в която достойни българи са спасявали евреи, не е имунизирана от антисемитизъм.

Смятам, че ролята и на журналиста, и на писателя е критичният анализ. Разбира се и писателят, и журналистът плащат съответната цена.
