“همه گمان میکنند بچه خوشبخت است. نه خوب یادم است آن وقت بیشتر حساس بودم. آن وقت هم مقلد و آب زیرکاه بودم. شاید ظاهرا میخندیدم یا بازی میکردم. ولی در باطن کمترین زخم زبان یا کوچکترین پیشامد ناگوار و بیهوده ساعتهای دراز فکر مرا به خود مشغول میداشت و خودم خودم را میخوردم” PainChildhood Book:زنده بهگور Source: زنده بهگور
“I saw that pain and disease existed and at the same time that they were void of sense and meaning. Among the men of the rabble I had become a creature of a strange, unknown race, so much so that they had forgotten that I had once been part of their world. I had the dreadful sensation that I was not really alive or wholly dead. I was a living corpse, unrelated to the world of living people and at the same time deprived of the oblivion and peace of death.” PainDeathPeaceDiseaseDeadOblivionCreatureCorpseDreadful Book:The Blind Owl Source: The Blind Owl
