“You see, I have never felt the need to invent a world beyond this world, for this world has always seemed large and beautiful enough for me. I have wondered why it is not large and beautiful enough for others-- why they must dream up new and marvelous spheres, or long to live elsewhere, beyond this dominion... but that is not my business. We are all different, I suppose. All I ever wanted was to know this world. I can say now, as I reach my end, that I know quite a bit more of it than I knew when I arrived. Moreover, my little bit of knowledge has been added to all the other accumulated knowledge of history-- added to the great library, as it were. That is no small feat, sir. Anyone who can say such a thing has lived a fortunate life.”

“Dzīve pastāv no bezgalīgām, garlaicīgām dienām un ātriem, skaistiem momentiem, kas kā ziedi pa gaisu aizlido, vēja rauti. Ja to nebūtu - neviens nedzīvotu. Jāmeklē vairāk tādu momentu - tas ir vienīgais, kas glābj dvēseli.”

“Literature is a textually transmitted disease, normally contracted in childhood.”

“Kari aizmirstas un kara vadoņi arī, bet reiz izaudzināta puķe paliek vienmēr, tūkstoš veidos uzziedot visās pasaules malās.”

“Neticība, neticība sev - tā mums ir jāizdzen no nākošās paaudzes. Mums ir jātic vairāk, nekā visi ticējuši katrs par sevi. Skaļā un gaišā pagātne mums dod tiesību ticēt sev. Bet priekš tā ir jāiet bojā šai paaudzei un vēl vienai. Un, ja mēs ticam sev, vienīgais mūsu kultūras uzdevums ir audzināt šo ticību visur. Ar visu mūsu dzīvi mums vajag saukt skaļi un atklāti, ka mēs atkal gribam būt dzīvi un nosaukt sevi vārdā.”
