“Γιατί ρε μωρό μου δεν μπορούμε να ερωτευθούμε χωρίς βαρίδια πάνω μας; Να μην πούμε «εγώ αυτό το πράμα με εσένα θα το ζήσω και όσο πάει». Μια ώρα, μια στιγμή, μια μέρα, έναν μήνα, όσο πάει.. όσο η «ανάγκη» μας δεν μας αφήνει να κάνουμε τίποτα άλλο από το να μοιραζόμαστε τον χρόνο μας και τα κορμιά μας. Να τα δίνουμε. Να τα προσφέρουμε ελεύθερα ο ένας στον άλλον.. ..για να ασελγήσουν πάνω τους οι πιο βαθιές μας «ανάγκες». ..για να νιώσουμε πώς είναι όταν αισθάνεσαι ζωντανός.”

“One of the fatal mistakes the man has done to himself is dividing the period between two sunrises into twenty-four units. He did not just stop there, he went on cutting it further into smaller pieces called minutes and seconds. Then, suddenly, he imagined a larger disaster, and combined thirteen full moons and name that catastrophe a year. Finally, instead of our mind, we are governed by a clock that ticks every second distracting us keeping us stuck in the snare of time, for a timeless, infinite and eternal period, till the man extinct on the face of the earth".”
