“Life as it proceeds reveals, cooly and dispassionately, what lies behind the mask that each man wears. It would seem that everyone possesses several faces. Some people use only one all the time, and it then, naturally, becomes soiled and wrinkled. These are the thrifty sort. Others look after their masks in the hope of passing them on to their descendants. Others again are constantly changing their faces. But all of them, when they reach old age, realise one day that the mask they are wearing is their last and that it will soon be worn out, and then, from behind the last mask, the real face appears.”

“She had made the kitchen a lovely place. Isabel could cry at it: at how a room could be made, and left behind, and turn terrible by way of absence. How a space could miss a person.”

“Ando, a vida inteira, sobretudo à caça de satisfação para uma angústia constante que se prende a tudo, a ter e não ter, sentir que nunca nada está completo, que nunca tempo algum é suficiente. Falta-me tempo, quero mais, e quero gente e quero corresponder, pertencer genuinamente a cada lugar e melhorar os lugares e melhorar tudo, e ser um pouco feliz no meio de tanta coisa, tanta coisa que nem entendo, não chego a conhecer, não sou sequer inteligente o bastante para as aventuras todas. E digo angústia porque fica no ar um lado mais existencial e filosófico do que a constatação sempre tão violenta da tristeza, alguma tristeza, e a vida faz-se de andar entre alguma tristeza e procurar saída.”
