“5 ianuarie. De două zile găsesc,ori de câte ori privesc în mine însumi,răceală,indiferenţă.În plimbarea de aseară,fiecare zgomot cât de mic al străzii,orice privire mi-era adresată,orice fotografie din vreo vitrină mi se păreau mai importante decât mine însumi.”

“For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror
which we are barely able to endure, and it amazes us so,
because it serenely disdains to destroy us.
Every angel is terrible.”

“A writer who writes, ''I am alone''... can be considered rather comical. It is comical for a man to recognize his solitude by addressing a reader and by using methods that prevent the individual from being alone. The word alone is just as general as the word bread. To pronounce it is to summon to oneself the presence of everything the word excludes.”
