“Nu-mi fac iluzii cu Tamara mea. Nici-u-na. La bătrânețe, voi rămâne singură ca o lepră și toate fricile mele - pe care acum le țin în cătușe, în menghine, sub ghilotinele cu lamele ridicate - se vor năpusti asupra mea ca o haită. E mai bine așa. Să știi că nimeni, dar mai ales cei cu care îți pierzi anii și banii, nu-ți va fi alături la sfârșit. Ce ușurare să afli că lipsa celui pe care îl iubești este justificată. Că golul din inimă nu este eșecul tău și nici al altcuiva. Văd, înțeleg că Tamara nu va putea să aibă grijă de mine, iar asta mă face să îi dau și mai multe. Să o iubesc și mai disperat. Ce folos că Tamara Pavlovna m-a crescut de mică? Câte căni cu apă i-am dus, de câte ori i-am răcorit fruntea? Eu, la nebuni, Tamara - la spital. Cine se mai bagă? Vouă cine vă netezește sfârșitul?”
