“PROCRASTINATION
The day after tomorrow, yes, only the day after tomorrow ...
Tomorrow I’ll start thinking about the day after tomorrow,
Maybe I could do it then; but not today ...
No, nothing today; today I can’t.
The confused persistence of my objective subjectivity,
The sleep of my real life, intercalated,
Anticipated, infinite weariness—
I’m worlds too weary to catch a trolley—
That kind of soul ...
Only the day after tomorrow ...
Today I want to prepare,
I want to prepare myself for tomorrow, when I’ll think about the next day ...
That’d be decisive.
I’ve already got the plans sketched out, but no, today I’m not making any
plans ...
Tomorrow’s the day for plans.
Tomorrow I’ll sit down at my desk to conquer the world;
But I’ll only conquer the world the day after tomorrow ...
I feel like crying,
I suddenly feel like crying a lot, inside ...
That’s all you’re getting today, it’s a secret, I’m not talking.
Only the day after tomorrow ...
When I was a kid the Sunday circus diverted me every week.
Today all that diverts me is the Sunday circus from all the weeks of my
childhood ...
The day after tomorrow I’ll be someone else,
My life will triumph,
All my real qualities—intelligent, well-read, practical—
Will be gathered together in a public notice ...
But the public notice will go up tomorrow ...
Today I want to sleep, I’ll make a fair copy tomorrow ...
For today, what show will repeat my childhood to me?
Even if I buy tickets tomorrow,
The show would still really be the day after tomorrow ...
Not before ...
The day after tomorrow I’ll have the public pose I will have practiced
tomorrow.
The day after tomorrow I’ll finally be what I could never be today.
Only the day after tomorrow ...
I’m sleepy as a stray dog's chill.
I’m really sleepy.
Tomorrow I’ll tell you everything, or the day after tomorrow ...
Yes, maybe only the day after tomorrow ...
By and by ...
Yes, the old by and by ...”

“Có người, sau những giờ phút nghỉ ngơi lại mệt nhọc hơn là sau khi làm việc... Vì trong ngày chúa nhật, họ xa công việc, họ không biết dùng thời giờ làm gì, họ thấy trống rỗng, họ tìm cách lấp những trống rỗng bằng những thú "giết thời giờ" mà hậu quả làm cho họ mệt mỏi hơn, rã rời hơn. Nghỉ ngơi trong trường hợp này chỉ là tự đầu độc mình và nghỉ ngơi như vậy còn tai hại hơn làm việc.”

“Ta cứ ngỡ rằng càng già ta càng cứng rắn hơn nhưng nghĩ thế là sai: ngày nào ta cũng phải lòng, sau mỗi ánh mắt, qua mỗi tiếng cười trong suốt như pha lê mà trái tim không thôi nhung nhớ. Chỉ đơn giản là ta kìm chế vì quá biết mọi chuyện sẽ dẫn đến đâu.”

“Tôi vẫn thường ngẫm nghĩ lý do những người có tài như thế lại thất bại. Có lẽ tài năng là chưa đủ. Đam mê là chưa đủ. Yêu thích là chưa đủ. Trên con đường đó vẫn nhiều cạm bẫy, vẫn nhiều ngã rẽ, vẫn nhiều thử thách chông gai. Biết được đam mê, vẫn không hết lòng, kiên trì, nhiệt tình theo đuổi nó. Vẫn không có tính kỷ luật, ép mình vào khuôn khổ. Để cuộc sống trôi đi với những thứ nhỏ nhặt vụn vặt. Thì tương lai vẫn mờ mịt như cũ.”
