“Las cosas no van mal del todo. El problema está dentro de mí. La mayor parte del tiempo la dedico a disimular con todas mis fuerzas, a fingir que lo que nos rodea no me extraña hasta la médula. Es difícil confiar en los demás porque a ellos no parece costarles tanto interpretar su papel y eso me inquieta. Ni siquiera diría que están actuando, es como si para ellos la vida fuese algo natural y para mí algo forzado. Cada vez que hablo con alguien me cambia la voz, me sudan las manos y noto que mi disfraz de humano es de mala calidad. Cuando estoy sola siento que soy yo misma, pero tengo que luchar contra el abismo de libertad y terror que se abre sobre el suelo que piso.”

“Oh, sleep. Nothing else could ever bring me such pleasure, such freedom, the power to feel and move and think and imagine, safe from the miseries of my waking consciousness.”

“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”

“A usted nunca le ha pasado que la vida se le enreda? Pues a mí la vida se me ha enredado, se me ha hecho un nudo que no sé cómo deshacer”

“I often think that at the center of me is a voice that at last did split, a house in my heart so invaded with other people and their speech, friends I believed I was devoted to, people whose lives I can simply guess at now, that it gives me the impression I am simply a collection of them, that they all existed for themselves, but had inadvertently formed me, then vanished. But, what: Should I have been expected to create my own self, out of nothing, out of thin, thin air and alone?”
