"Maybe you should find out who are your friends and who are your enemies."
"I don't have enemies."
"Or friends, either."

I had wanted to become something - here was the point - only because I was afraid that Lila would become someone and I would stay behind. My becoming was a becoming in her wake. I had to start again to become, but for myself, as an adult, outside of her.

"(...)You always use 'true' and 'truthfully', when you speak and when you write. Or you say: 'unexpectedly'.(...) You know better than I that it's all a fraud and that one thing follows another and then another. I don't do anything 'truthfully' anymore, LenΓΊ. And I've learned to pay attention to things. Only idiots believe that they happen 'unexpectedly'.

(...)Whereas my husband never praised me but, rather, reduced me to the mother of his children; even though I had an education he did not want me to be capable of independent thought, he demeaned me by demeaning what I read, what interested me, what I said, and he appeared willing to love me only provided I continually demonstrate my nothingness.

"I prefer her to you. You're two pieces of shit and nothing can change you, two examples of underclass filth. But you act all friendly and Lina doesn't."

She burst out laughing. She said that the disgusting face of things alone was not enough for writing a novel: without imagination it would seem not a true face but a mask.

(...) I expect the best from you, I'm too certain that you can do better, I want you to do better, it's what I want most, because who am I if you aren't great, who am I?
I whispered: Don't worry, always tell me what you think, that's the only way you can help me(...) without you I am not capable of anything.

He keeps me separate from the confusion inside him, he's never been interested in what I was and what I've become, what's the point of giving him the book?
