"One boy was listening to the sea tales that fishermen told, and he didn't notice how he grew up. He went to sea to find out which is true and which is fable, but who can tell the difference. A lot of things imagine on dark nights, especially when you are far away from home. And fairy tale is such a tricky thing: when you walk along the path it seems that the truth is all around, only in front, behind the corner a falsehood-nebyl lurks. But when you reach it and turn the corner you see again - all around is the truth, there is no fiction at all, even though you believed in it."
- from author's fairy tale "Legend of Wanderer"
