„Nikto sa nikdy nedostane do neba a nikto nedostane žiadnu krajinu. Je to len v ich hlave.“

— John Steinbeck

Originál

Nobody never gets to heaven, and nobody gets no land. It's just in their head.

Zdroj: Of Mice and Men (1937), Ch. 4, p. 74
Kontext: They come, an' they quit an' go on; an' every damn one of 'em's got a little piece of land in his head. An' never a God damn one of 'em ever gets it. Just like heaven. Ever'body wants a little piece of lan'. I read plenty of books out here. Nobody never gets to heaven, and nobody gets no land. It's just in their head.
