“Erano il sesso e i romanzi e la musica e i film a rendere la vita sopportabile - non gli amici, non la famiglia, non la scuola, non la scena sociale, non le relazioni - e quella era stata l'estate in cui una settimana sì e una no avevo visto I predatori dell'arca perduta ma avevo cenato a stento un paio di volte con i miei genitori separati. Non investivo nel mondo reale - perchè avrei dovuto? Non era fatto per me o per i miei bisogni o desideri.”

“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.”

“Ricordo quel momento come uno dei primi in cui mi avvicinai all'età adulta, in cui compresi quanto fosse potente la memoria - o comunque fu la prima volta in cui mi fece così male. E non c'era niente che potessi fare riguardo al dolore del passato - si posò semplicemente su di me.”

“And I just stood there in the fading afternoon light, realizing at seventeen that I was already staring into my past — that the past had a meaning that would always define you. I remember this being one of my first moments nearing adulthood, when I realized how powerful memory was — or at least it was the first time it hurt the most. And there was nothing I could do about the pain of the past — it just settled over me.”
