“He had never liked October. Ever since he had first lay in the autumn leaves before his grandmother's house many years ago and heard the wind and saw the empty trees. It had made him cry, without a reason. And a little of that sadness returned each year to him. It always went away with spring.

But, it was a little different tonight. There was a feeling of autumn coming to last a million years.

There would be no spring. ("The October Game")”

“ما معنى أن نفكر إذا كان ذلك يفقدنا أعز من نحب ؟ ما معنى أن نحاول العيش إذا كانت هذه الحالة تقودنا بخطى حثيثة نحو الموت المؤكد ؟ ما معنى أن نفلسف الحياة إذا كان كلما فتحنا بابا للأسئلة أغلقنا كل أبواب السعادة ؟!”

“للموت رائحة , للحزن رائحة , للدمع رائحة , للبكاء رائحة ..
لا نشمها إلا بعد زمنٍ بعيد عندما نتذكر الفاجعة !”
