“People, lions, eagles and partridges, antlered deer, geese, spiders, silent fish inhabiting the waters, starfish and those not visible to the eye -in short, all living things, all living things, all living things have completed their sad round and are extinct...For thousands of years already the earth has not borne upon itself a single living being and this poor moon lights its lamp in vain. The cranes no longer awaken with a cry in the meadows, nor are the june bugs heard in the linden groves. Cold, cold, cold. Empty, empty, empty. Eerie, eerie, eerie.”

“The river ran on, no one knew where or why, just as it had in May; from a small stream it flowed into a large river to the sea, then rose to vapor and returned in rain; and perhaps the very same water he had seen in May was again flowing before his eyes...For what purpose? Why? And the whole world, all of life, seemed to Ryabovich to be an incomprehensible, aimless jest.”
