“. . . the more I love mankind in general, the less I love people in particular, that is, individually, as separate persons. In my dreams . . . I often went so far as to think passionately of serving mankind . . . and yet, I am incapable of living in the same room with anyone for even two days . . . As soon as someone is there, close to me, his personality oppresses my self-esteem and restricts my freedom. In twenty-four hours I can begin to hate even the best of men: one because he takes too long eating his dinner, another because he has a cold and keeps blowing his nose. I become the enemy of people the moment they touch me . . . On the other hand, it has always happened that the more I hate people individually, the more ardent becomes my love for humanity as a whole.”

“From Ulisses she'd learned to have the courage to have faith--lots of courage, faith in what? In faith itself, since faith can be a real scare, it can mean falling into the abyss, Lori was afraid of falling into the abyssand was holding on to one of Ulisses's hands while Ulisses's other hand was pushing her into the abyss--soon she'd have to let go of the hand that was weaker than the one pushing her, and fall, life isn't a joke because in the middle of the day youd die. A human being's most pressing need was to become a human being.”
