“...and yet the idea is hard to accept, it's so hard to succeed in making something happen, even what's been decided on and planned out, not even the will of a god seems forceful enough to manage it, if our own will is made in its semblance. It may be, rather, that nothing is ever unmixed and the thirst for totality is never quenched, perhaps because it is a false yearning. Nothing is whole or of a single piece, everything is fractured and evenomed, veins of peace run through the body of war and hatred insinuates itself into love and compassion, there is truce amid the quagmire of bullets and a bullet amid the revelries, nothing can bear to be unique or prevail or be dominant and everything needs fissures and cracks, needs it negation at the same time as its existence. And nothing is known with certainty and everything is told figuratively.”

“Ich schaue hinauf in den Nachthimmel, wo Sterne um Sichtbarkeit gegen die städtischen Lichter kämpfen. Der Eiffelturm gleich um die Ecke, konkurriert jetzt mit den Sternen, die einst unsere Suche nach Licht in der Nacht inspirierten. Wir haben nie gegen den Tag gekämpft, stattdessen kämpfen wir gegen die Nacht! Dies ist nicht die Stadt der Liebe, es ist die Stadt des Lichts! Ah, und das Schimmern, das endlose Schimmern überall!”
