“You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.”
― The Captain's Verses

“Există momente când eşti „mai puţin decât tine însuţi" şi mai puţin decât orice. Mai puţin decât un obiect pe care îl priveşti, mai puţin decât un scaun, decât o masă şi decât o bucată de lemn. Eşti dedesubtul lucrurilor, în subsolul realităţii, sub viaţa ta proprie şi sub ceea ce se întâmplă în jur... Eşti o formă mai efemeră şi mai destrămată decât a elementarei materii imobile. Ţi-ar trebui atunci un efort imens ca să înţelegi inerţia simplă a pietrelor şi zaci abolit, redus la „mai puţin decât tine însuţi" în imposibilitatea de a face acel efort.”
