" "I blame science! I blame technology! Domin! Myself! All of us! We, we are at fault! For the sake of our megalomania, for the sake of somebody’s profits, for the sake of progress, I don’t know, for the sake of some tremendous something we have murdered humanity! So now you can crush under the weight of all your greatness! No Genghis Khan has ever erected such an enormous tomb from human bones!

Additional quotes by Karel Čapek
Ono što nazivamo svojim životom, to nije sve što smo proživjeli; to je samo odabir. Previše je toga što proživljavamo, više nego što naš um može zahvatiti. Zato si izabiremo ovo ili ono, već što nam odgovara, pa iz toga ispletemo neku pojednostavnjenu priču; i onda taj proizvod nazivamo svojim životom. Ali koliko otpadaka pritom zanemarimo, koliko čudnih i strašnih stvari izostavimo, zaboga, kad bi to sve čovjek osvijestio! Ali mi možemo živjeti samo jedan jednostavan život. Proživjeti više od toga bilo bi izvan naše moći. Ne bismo imali snage živjeti kad usput ne bismo pogubili većinu života.
