“The house, and all the objects in it, crackled with static electricity; undertows washed through it, the air was heavy with things that were known but not spoken. Like a hollow log, a drum, a church, it was amplified, so that conversations whispered in it sixty years ago can be half-heard today.”

“Cînd eşti pe un drum cu sens unic şi când nu mai există cale de întoarcere, nu-ţi mai permiţi nimic.Fiecare secundă te costă altfel.Am început să îmi dau voie să exist,să ma consum fără restricţii, să fac nebuniile altei vârste şi să simt mirosul fiecărui gînd care-mi face inima să tresară şi mă provoacă la viaţă.Când eşti la o respiraţie de moarte, nu mai ai vârstă.”

“Familia yako haikusaidii chochote katika mipango ya takdiri yako. Hii inasikitisha sana. Unajitahidi kila siku kuwafurahisha watu unaowapenda na watu wako wa karibu. Kila ukijitahidi kupata kibali cha watu unaishia kudharaulika na kuonekana mjinga asiyekuwa na maana. Sikiliza mazungumzo ya ndani ya moyo wako. Wapendwa wako watakukubali kama mtu hodari asiyekata tamaa, na tena watakuheshimu kutokana na tabia zako hizo. Mabadiliko haya ya kifikra hayatatokea haraka kama unavyofikiria. Yatachukua muda. Hivyo, kuwa mvumilivu. Wakati huohuo, endelea kucheza ngoma uliyoianzisha mwenyewe, endelea na mipango yako kama akili yako inavyokutuma.”
― Enock Maregesi

― Douglas Adams, Life, the Universe and Everything
