“Sie sah die weißen Weiten Grönlands vor sich auftauchen. Das blaue Schillern der Eisberge, die in der Bucht vor Nuuk zum offenen Meer trieben. Die Rentierherden, die über die gefrorenen Hochebenen zogen und nach Flechten im Schnee scharrten. Der Hausberg Sermitsiaq, der hinter der Stadt steil und ehrfurchtgebietend in den pastellfarbenen Winterhimmel aufragte. Die arktische Nacht mit ihren Wundern. Das grünliche Flackern des Polarlichts ...”

“ჩემს ყოველ ნახატში ჩემი სისხლის წვეთია, რომელიც შერეულია თქვენი მამის სისხლის წვეთთან, წარმოიქმნება უჩვეულო კავშირი, რომელზეც თქვენ ვერც კი ხვდებით, იგი აერთიანებს ჩემს თვალებს თქვენს სულთან, თავიდან გქმნით, რომ შეიცნოთ საკუთარი თავი... ყველა ჩვენთაგანი უნდა მივიდეთ ჰარმონიასთან - ჩემი ნახატი, ჩემი კონსტრუქცია, ჩემი საღებავები და თვითონაც, - რომ ერთად განვიცადოთ ეს მგრძნობიარე წუთები”

“Sometimes, down in the subway, a train Maxine's riding on will slowly be overtaken by a local or an express on the other track, and in the darkness of the tunnel, as the windows of the other train move slowly past, the lighted panels appear one by one, like a series of fortune-telling cards being deal and slid in front of her. The Scholar, The Unhoused, The Warrior Thief, The Haunted Woman... After a while Maxine has come to understand that the faces framed in these panels are precisely those out of all the city millions she must in the hour be paying most attention to, in particular those whose eyes actually meet her own - they are the day's messengers from whatever the Beyond has for a Third World, where the days are assembled one by one under non-union conditions. Each messenger carrying the props required for their character, shopping bags, books, musical instruments, arrived here out of darkness, bound again into darkness, with only a minute to deliver the intelligence Maxine needs. At some point naturally she begins to wonder if she might not be performing the same role for some face looking back out another window at her.”
