“[…] non facevo niente di niente a parte tormentarmi, e sentire odio, e sentire tristezza, e alternare le due cose conservando dentro di me una sola speranza: forse l'indomani mi sarei svegliato e avrei scoperto che non era vero niente. L'unica soluzione era che fosse tutto un sogno, e quando l'ho compreso ho capito anche che è così il vero dolore: è quando non hai nessuna soluzione, a parte desiderare di tornare a prima di conoscerlo.”

“Of course it was not only the law that interfered with our management of the paper. The politicians, too, soon took a hand. The Oberpräsident of Schleswig-Holstein, a man named Kürbis (which is German for pumpkin) forbad its publication; it appeared the next day, entitled Die Westküste [The West Coat]. This too was banned, and for a short time my brother's wish was fulfilled and we edited Die Grüne Front. I, too, had the gratification of seeing my original suggestion realised whn it became, in due course, Die Sturmglocke. Finally, the Oberpräsident forbad us from publishing any paper at all which was not purely concerned with technical agricultural matters. So we rechristened it Der Kürbis, aand the leading article consisted of variations on the subject of pumpking as given in the encyclopaedia; we expatiated on how pumkins flourish best in plenty of dung and on the disagreeable nature of their blossom's scwent. Thenceforth the paper resumed its original name of Das Landvolk and that was that.”
