“I realized this all at once the moment I had the suspicion that maybe I wasn't so admirable. From then on, I became distrustful. Since I was bleeding slightly, there was no escape for me; they would devour me. The circle of which I was the center broke and they lined up in a row as on the judges' bench.“

“No, it was not love or generosity that awakened me when I was in danger of being forsaken, but merely the desire to be loved and to receive what in my opinion was due me. The moment I was loved and my partner again forgotten, I shone, I was at the top of my form, I became likable.”

I progressed on the surface of life, in the realm of words, never in reality. All those books barely read, friends barely loved, cities barely visited, women barely possessed. I went through the gestures out of boredom or absent-mindedness. Then came human beings; they wanted to cling, but there was nothing to cling to and that was unfortunate—for them. As for me, I forgot. I never remembered anything but myself.
