“I had decided ages ago that I would not continue my education after school, what we learned was just rubbish, basically what life was about was living, and living in the way you want, in other words, enjoying your life. Some enjoyed their lives best by working, others by not working. OK, I was aware that I would need money, which meant that I would also have to work, but not all the time and not on something that would deplete all my energy and eat into my soul, leaving me like one of the middleaged halfwits who guarded their hedges and peered across at their neighbours to see if their status symbols were as wonderful as their own.
I didn’t want that.
But money was a problem.”

“Съблякох си ризата и се оказа, че върху жълтата хавлия имаше място точно за двама. И в този миг прозрях вътрешната си същност, ако изобщо имах някаква вътрешна същност, а именно, че не искам да бъда различен. Че искам да бъда обикновен. Не исках вътрешната ми същност да се набива на очи. Лежахме толкова близо един до друг, че усещах докосването на рамото и ханша ѝ. Разстоянието между нас оформяше съд, който и при най-малкото раздвижване щеше да се напълни или да се счупи.”

“Предната вечер Уелбек беше споделил, че е невъзможно да се напише роман поради същата причина, поради която е невъзможно и да се живее, и тя се крие в натрупването на тежести. Всички теории за свободата, от Жид до Сартр, са основани върху иморализми, формулирани от освободени от каквато и да било отговорност ергени. Такива като мен, беше добавил той, докато начеваше третата бутилка чилийско вино.”

“She did occasionally criticise my priorities, how could I buy three new LPs one Friday afternoon when I was walking around in shoes with the sole flapping off? They’re just material goods, I responded, objects, while music was completely different. This was the mind, for Christ’s sake. This is what we need, really, and I do mean really, and it’s important to prioritise it. Everyone prioritises. Everyone wants new jackets and new shoes and new cars and new houses and new caravans and new mountain cabins and new boats. But I don’t. I buy books and records because they say something about what life is about, what it is to be a human here on earth. Do you understand?
‘Yes, you’re probably right, in a way. But isn’t it terribly impractical to walk around with your soles coming off? And it doesn’t look very nice, either, does it.’
‘What do you want me to do? I haven’t got any money. I prioritised music on this occasion.”
