“Friendship was witnessing another’s slow drip of miseries, and long bouts of boredom, and occasional triumphs. It was feeling honored by the privilege of getting to be present for another person’s most dismal moments, and knowing that you could be dismal around him in return.”

“For a long time, she held a special place in my heart. I kept this special place just for her, like a "Reserved" sign on a quiet corner table in a restaurant. Despite the fact that I was sure I'd never see her again.”

“How much better is silence; the coffee cup, the table. How much better to sit by myself like the solitary sea-bird that opens its wings on the stake. Let me sit here for ever with bare things, this coffee cup, this knife, this fork, things in themselves, myself being myself.”

“Something of vengeance I had tasted for the first time; as aromatic wine it seemed, on swallowing, warm and racy: its after-flavour, metallic and corroding, gave me a sensation as if I had been poisoned.”

“Tôi thích những mối tình câm, tình thầm. Tôi tưởng tượng đó là những mối tình da diết, sâu sắc. Mãi mãi chẳng dám nói thật lòng, cho đến cuối đời, tình ấy vẫn bàng bạc, rập rờn, và mỗi khi có dịp (như đi qua chỗ ngồi cũ, con đường cũ, gương mặt cũ…), ta bỗng thấy nhói ran. Chắc là khó chịu lắm, khi yêu mà giả bộ không yêu, khi buồn cố diễn mặt vui, khi đau tình phải tỏ ra vô tình…”
