    • 2011, Виктор Пелевин , “Ч. 1. Damsel in distress”, in S.N.U.F.F.; English translation from Andrew Bromfield, transl., S.N.U.F.F., 2014:
      Дре́вний поэ́т сказа́л, что любо́е повествова́ние подо́бно тка́ни, растя́нутой на ле́звиях то́чных прозре́ний. И е́сли мои́ прозре́ния в о́ркскую ду́шу точны́ — а они́ точны́, — то в э́том не моя́ заслу́га.
      Drévnij poét skazál, što ljubóje povestvovánije podóbno tkáni, rastjánutoj na lézvijax tóčnyx prozrénij. I jésli moí prozrénija v órkskuju dúšu točný — a oní točný, — to v étom ne mojá zaslúga.
      An ancient poet once said that any narrative is like fabric stretched over the blades of several precise insights. If my insights into the Orkish soul are precise – and they are – the credit for that is not due to me.
