“I’m sick to death of this particular self. I want another.”

“For some things there are no wrong seasons, which is what I dream of for me.”

“Someone, somewhere, can you understand me a little, love me a little?”

“Who has not asked himself at some time or other: am I a monster or is this what it means to be a person?”

“YOU SHOULD LIMIT THE NUMBER OF TIMES YOU ACT AGAINST YOUR NATURE, LIKE SLEEPING WITH PEOPLE YOU HATE. IT’S INTERESTING TO TEST YOUR CAPABILITIES FOR A WHILE BUT TOO MUCH WILL CAUSE DAMAGE”

“That's what I consider true generosity: You give your all, and yet you always feel as if it costs you nothing.”

“So I try to be kind to everything I see, and in everything I see him.”
