“but a real man…a man who could sweep me off my feet without resorting to brute strength…without asking anything of me, without controlling me, or degrading me, a man who could love me and walk by my side…In other words, a truly powerful man, a real man…”

“For as long as I lived, I would travel far and wide, meeting with people whose languages I did or did not know, and everywhere I went, I would be looking for Maria Puder. In every pair of eyes, I would be searching for the Madonna in a Fur Coat. I knew from the outset that I would never find her. Yet it was not in my power to give up searching. She had condemned me to a lifelong quest for a cypher, for someone who did not exist. She should never have done this to me.”

“Now I can see the truth. All the same, I have no choice but to condemn myself to everlasting solitude. Life is a game that is only played once, and I lost. There is no second chance … My years ahead will be even worse than the years already past.”
