“The names of minerals and the minerals themselves do not differ from each other, because at the bottom of both the material and the print is the beginning of an abysmal number of fissures. Words and rocks contain a language that follows a syntax of splits and ruptures. Look at any word long enough and you will see it open up into a series of faults, into a terrain of particles each containing its own void.”

“Kila sumu ina kiuasumu chake. Viuasumu vya 'cyanide' ni 'amyl nitrite', 'sodium nitrite', 'cyanokit', na 'sodium thiosulfate'. Kazi ya viuasumu hivi ni kuzalisha madini mengi ya chuma mwilini. Madini haya yatapambana na maada za rangi za uhai ('cytochromes') kwa ajili ya 'cyanide', ili 'cyanide' ing’ang’anie kwenye kiuasumu badala ya kung’ang’ania kwenye vimeng’enya vya seli za mwilini. Kiuasumu kinaposhinda mpambano huo; 'cyanide' hutolewa nje kwa njia ya mkojo, na mwathirika wa 'cyanide' hupona kabisa. 'Sodium thiosulfate' ndiyo bora zaidi kuliko 'amyl nitrite' au 'sodium nitrite', na ndiyo bora zaidi kuliko 'cyanokit'.”
