“And Lot's wife, of course, was told not to look back where all those people and their homes had been. But she did look back, and I love her for that, because it was so human. So she was turned into a pillar of salt. So it goes.”

“The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving

and each will smile at the other’s welcome.”

“I was set free, because my greatest fear had already been realized, and I was still alive, and I still had a daughter whom I adored, and I had an old typewriter and a big idea. And so rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.”

“آدمها میآیند
زندگی میکنند
میمیرند
و میروند
اما
فاجعهی زندگی تو
آن هنگام آغاز میشود
که آدمی میميرد
اما
نمیرود
میماند
و نبودنش در بودن تو
چنان ته نشین میشود
که تو میمیری در حالی که زندهای
و او زنده میشود در حالی که مرده است
از مزار که بازگشتی
قبرستان را به خانه نیاور”
