Když jsem se na velvyslanectví dotazovala na adresy Jevgenije Jevtušenka a dalších básníků, jejichž díla byla v té době u nás tabu, byla jsem upozorněna, abych po nich raději nepátrala, protože bych mohla dopadnout „jako Špejbl“. Hurvínek se ze Sovětského svazu vrátil, protože na dotaz, jestli viděl ten velký pokrok v SSSR, řekl, že viděl. Když se ho ptali, kde má taťuldu, tak smutně odvětil „Ten tam zůstal, on to neviděl. “

Unfortunately that day we had already scheduled a boat trip around Manhattan Island. After having disturbed him once, I didn’t want to call in the morning again. After we returned, Jiří Voskovec told me that he had arranged a time for me this day and there was not much time left. We met at Greenwich Village, and after few photos he invited me home, where I photographed him with his wife. Then he brought me to the theatre where he was performing in Durrenmatt’s “The Physicists”. During the performance, of course, I wasn’t able to take photographs, so I have only a few pictures, and a postcard where he thanks me for the photos. Jan Werich wrote about my photos for the magazine Vlasta, a very interesting article that was published in December 1964.
