“Biz canlıların cehennemi gelecekte var olacak bir şey değil eğer bir cehennem varsa, burada, çoktan aramızda; her gün içinde yaşadığımız, birlikte, yan yana durarak yarattığımız cehennem. İki yolu var acı çekmemenin: Birincisi pek çok kişiye kolay gelir: cehennemi kabullenmek ve onu görmeyecek kadar onunla bütünleşmek, ikinci yol riskli, sürekli bir dikkat ve eğitim istiyor; cehennemin ortasında cehennem olmayan kim ve ne var, onu aramak ve bulduğunda tanımayı bilmek, onu yaşatmak, ona fırsat vermek.”

All that such a person holds in his hands is the withered corpse of what should have been.”
