“Cuando tenía doce años vi cómo se llevaban a una niña de la biblioteca pública porque era de tercera clase. La registraron y le vaciaron los bolsillos, que tenía llenos de páginas arrancadas de Cuento de Navidad, de Dickens. Me impresionó su acto de vandalismo, pero aún más su determinación de acceder a la literatura. El sistema de clases fomenta la ambición, me explicó más tarde el tío Thomas. ¿Habría deseado tan desesperadamente leer el libro esa niña si lo tuviera permitido? --- Capitulo 5.”

“Oh you whom I have loved, farewell. It is not my fault that the human body cannot survive three days without drinking. I did not believe I was so imprisoned by the sources. I did not suspect such a short autonomy. It is believed that man can march straight ahead. It is believed that man is free... One does not see the rope that binds him to the well, that binds him like an umbilical cord to the belly of the earth. If he takes one more step, he dies.”

“As for you who save us, Bedouin of Libya, you will nevertheless be erased forever from my memory. I will never remember your face. You are the Man, and you appear to me with the face of all men together. You have not even looked at us in the face and you have already recognized us. You are the beloved brother. And, in turn, I will recognize you in all men. You appear to me illuminated with nobility and benevolence, a great lord who has the power to give drink. In you, all my friends and my enemies walk toward me, and I no longer have a single enemy in the world.”
