"Eu, eu queria dizer-te que esta vida é um suplício."

"When Haley Joel Osment thought about Dakota Fanning's father he saw a normal-looking man sitting on the edge of a bed in the morning, standing in an office with a neutral facial expression, walking to his apartment at night, walking into his bedroom, quietly closing the door, screaming in agony, brushing his teeth, sleeping."

[o dilema da vida?]: "Se pudéssemos ir e ao mesmo tempo ficar deitados - respondeu este, espreguiçando-se. Está-se tão be deitado!"

"Acabavam de chegar de Moscou e rejubilavam com a solidão. Liêvin, à secretária, escrevia; Kitty, com o seu vestido violeta, (...) aninhada no grande divã de couro desde tempos imemorias ali no gabinete de Liêvin, consagrava-se à sua broderie anglaise.

"Just because it is a hoax from the beggining, the personal ego can make only a phony response to life. For the world is an ever-elusive and ever-disappointing mirage only from the standpoint of someone standing aside from it (...) and then trying to grasp it. Without birth and death, and without the perpetual transmutation of all forms of life, the world would be static, rhytmless, undancing, mummified."

"Life and love generate effort, but effort will not generate them. Faith - in life, in other people, and in oneself - is the attitude of allowing the spontaneous to BE spontaneous, in its own way and in its own time. This is, of course, risky because life and other people do not always respond to faith as we might wish. Faith is always a gamble because life itself is a gambling game."

"'Dormir! Esquecer!', dizia de si para consigo com a serena resolução de um homem são, certo de, em caso de fadiga, poder adormecer à vontade."

"[A morte] Estava nele próprio, sentia-a."
