"I͡A pishu istorii o li͡ubvi, kotorai͡a sama po sebe i estʹ okonchatelʹnai͡a nagrada, esli ona ne bolʹnai͡a, ne beshenai͡a, ne vymatyvai͡ushchai͡a dushu. Inogda i͡a pridumyvai͡u k neĭ krasivye dekorat͡sii - doma, mashiny, luzhaĭki, a inogda i dekorat͡siĭ nikakikh ne pridumyvai͡u, polnym-polno istoriĭ, gde geroi zhivut v panelʹnykh domakh i rabotai͡ut, skazhem, v bolʹnit͡se!.. Ėto vam tak sgori͡acha kazhetsi͡a, chto vse oni pro zolushek. Nichego podobnogo". Tatʹi͡ana Ustinova

"I write stories about love, which in itself is the ultimate reward, if it is not sick, not mad, not exhausting the soul. Sometimes I come up with beautiful decorations for it-houses, cars, lawns, and sometimes I do not come up with any decorations, full of stories where the characters live in panel houses and work, say, in a hospital!.. It seems to you so hotly that they are all about Cinderellas. Nothing like that." Tatyana Ustinova
