“فعلى كوكب صغير ، يسير نحو العدم منذ ملايين السنين ، نولد وسط الآلام ونترعرع ، ونجاهد ، ونمرض ، ونتألم ، ونسبب الألم للآخرين ، ونصخب ، ونموت ، يموت أناس ، في حين يولد آخرون ، ليبدأ تكرار الملهاة العقيمة من جديد.”

― Ernesto Sabato, The Tunnel

“اعطتني القراءة عذرًا مقبولًا لعزلتي، بل ربما اعطت مغزىً لتلك العزلة المفروضة عليّ”
