“Er lachte wieder sein zynisches, verletztes Lachen – und dieses Lachen besagte: Rat mal, was ich herausgefunden habe, als ich acht wurde oder so? Ich habe herausgefunden, dass das ganze Leben eine verdammte Scheiße ist und dass sich daran so bald nichts ändern wird. Vielleicht wird sich auch nie etwas daran ändern. Und das kotzt mich an, aber es hat auch seine komischen Seiten. Verstehst du, was ich meine?”

“There is only one inborn error, and that is the notion that we exist in order to be happy... So long as we persist in this inborn error... the world seems to us full of contradictions. For at every step, in things great and small, we are bound to experience that the world and life are certainly not arranged for the purpose of maintaining a happy existence... hence the countenances of almost all elderly persons wear the expression of what is called disappointment.”
