“Fui de uno a otro, llevando en las manos mi dolor—no, no mi dolor sino la inaprehensible naturaleza de nuestro vivir— para que lo inspeccionaran. Algunos acuden a los sacerdotes, yo acudo a mis amigos y a mi propio corazón, y busco por entre frases y fragmentos algo que aún no esté quebrado, yo, para quien no hay belleza bastante en la luna o árbol, para quien el contacto de una persona con otra lo es todo, pero que ni siquiera esto puedo comprender, yo que soy tan imperfecto tan débil, tan indeciblemente solo. Ahí estaba.”

“I am a free man—and I need my freedom. I need to be alone. I need to ponder my shame and my despair in seclusion; I need the sunshine and the paving stones of the streets without companions, without conversation, face to face with myself, with only the music of my heart for company. What do you want of me? When I have something to say, I put it in print. When I have something to give, I give it. Your prying curiosity turns my stomach! Your compliments humiliate me! Your tea poisons me! I owe nothing to any one. I would be responsible to God alone—if He existed!”

“Habíamos sido felices caminando sobre una cuerda floja, habíamos florecido en un infección de contradicciones, nos habíamos encontrado en un laberinto de paradojas sin mirar nunca al suelo, sin mirar nunca al cielo, sin mirar.”

“Proselytizing is a moral imperative and feeds the marketplace of ideas. I want to hear everyone tell the truth as they see it. I want to learn from everyone.”

“The greatest thing about provable reality is that by definition reality is shared. Every argument is really an agreement—an agreement that there is a reality that can be shared, judged, and discussed. To argue over whether the speed of light is constant or Batman could beat up the Lone Ranger is to share the parameters. God is solipsistic; reality is shared.”
