“هناك أسئلة تحمل نفيها ضمنها ببساطة بمجرد أن يتم طرحها، وهناك رجاء يتضح عدم جدواه التام بمجرد نطقه والنظر في الوقت نفسه في عيني المتلقي.”

“كيف تقنع امرأة تحبها بأن في قلبك حبًا آخر لا يناقض حبها ؟ وبخاصة إذا كان هذا الحب الآخر مما يحتم عليك مجابهة العدو -- مجابهة القتل ؟”

“What is needed here is slowness. The vibrations of the past will take their time until they calm down and find a form in which to rest. This needs the slowness of a magician. A precious slowness, allowing feelings of comfort and calm to work their way gently within us. These feelings do not form at once or suddenly. Slowness teaches us how to accept the new; to regard it as natural and the way things have always been. We have to live the new intensely and slowly.”
