“On earth, we are like cheese dice in the hands of the master. At each tweak, he decides which dice leads first. On his weakness, his own gets defeated. We are like the farmer who has planted and toiled, but on the day of rest, the rain sweeps everything away. All the labor, the hard work – all gone, and never to return as before. We are like the flowers that blossom each day, but then the floods sweep them away. We are left with nothing but heartbreak, sadness, and grief. Hoping to recover, but time doesn't heal anything. We are nothing here, nothing on earth, nothing in this world. Let each of us await his own time. Until then, YOLO.”

“- Parle-moi... Et j'entends "Parle-moi, sinon, je meurs." - De quoi veux-tu que je parle? - De chez nous. Dis-moi ce qu'il y a là-bas. [...] - Chez nous, il y a... il y a des chats qui font leur toilette au soleil sur les bords des fenêtres... il y a des affiches déchirées aux murs des maisons... il y a des papiers de Carambar par terre... des odeurs de lilas dans la rue en dessous de chez nous... - Continue... - il y a... des magazines dans les magasins... des bicyclettes abandonnées avec la roue avant qui manque... il y a des gens qui crient "c'est pas fini ce boucan?"... des feuilles d'automne couleur de rouille... il y a maman qui secoue un tapis par la fenêtre de la chambre... - Continue... - il y a la pluie qui rebondit sur les pavés... des enfants qui disent "d'accord, j'arrive!"... des crayons à papier avec la petite gomme au bout... il y a des flans au caramel qu'on retourne dans l'assiette et le caramel coule dessus... il y a la veste de pépé Marcello accrochée dans le couloir... Je me tais.”

“It gave him a kind of nervous satisfaction to see his basic grievance against reality confirmed once again by reality itself; nothing hold still. Every time you turned out around, something else had gone rotten, or fallen into despair, or disappeared entirely. In a universe that couldn't be trusted, that could at any moment just as likely as not blow up in your face like a bomb, you had to carve out your own island of order and control, however arbitrary, however illusory, just to keep going.”
