“While I slept you stood in the colorful night market with pyramids of bright fruit piled high Where those who loved you, rushing back to their intimate stalls, held out pears that had been dreamed for you And would the dream pear not come gladly once it knew this was you wanting to take it in? The dream pear chose reality, wanting your mouth as I did - Honestly, it was happy to be bitten.”

“The chaplain glanced at the bridge table that served as his desk and saw only the abominable orange-red, pear-shaped, plum tomato he had obtained that same morning from Colonel Cathcart, still lying on its side where he had forgotten it like an indestructible and incarnadine symbol of his own ineptitude.”

“You know, it's never wise to tempt the devil" His gaze lowered to her hand, still locked in his grip, her finger glistening with pear juice. His rich voice lowered to raw huskiness "had I not this mask, I should be of a mind to suck that juice right off your fingers”

“Eat up, sweet one. And if you ask, I am sure Thrasius will make a pear patina tonight." Apicius's voice always held a special warmth when he addressed his daughter. "Please, Thrasius! I love it when you make the pears pretty!" I laughed at her description of the fruit, honey, and egg dish. I always added an extra layer of pears on top, and I had to admit, they did look pretty once they were cooked and shining with oil. "I would be pleased to make that for you, little Domina." Spontaneously, Apicata ran around the table and gave me a big hug.”

“To even talk about not having a partner makes the story about me not having a partner. What is actually happening in the ecosystem of my spiritual life and my physical life and my emotional life is that a garden is blooming. . . . It isn’t about who isn’t here. It is about what is here.”

“I fiori di pero sconsolatamente sciupati dalla pioggia ispirano una sensazione di pietà, i fiori di aronia illuminati freddamente dalla luna suscitano un’impressione di tenerezza. Del tutto differente è la vista delle ombrose camelie. Hanno un aspetto tenebroso, velenoso, terrificante. Proprio perché superficialmente sono abbigliate con tinte sgargianti. Inoltre non sembrano voler civettare con gli uomini né attirarli. Vivono quietamente nell’ombra dei monti, lontane dagli sguardi umani, per centinaia d’anni, e all’improvviso sbocciano e cadono, cadono e sbocciano. Basta uno sguardo per essere perduti. Chi posa i suoi occhi su di loro non potrà più sfuggire alla magia. Quella tinta non è un semplice rosso. È uno strano rosso, come il sangue di un prigioniero giustiziato, che spontaneamente attrae gli sguardi degli astanti e sgomenta i loro cuori. Mentre le contemplo, una rossa corolla cade sull’acqua. Nella tranquilla primavera solo lei si muove. Poco dopo ne cade un’altra. Quel fiore non perde mai i suoi petali. Più che spampanarsi, scivola dal gambo ancora intero. E, di colpo, apparentemente senza rimpianti; vederlo intero anche sul suolo incute una sinistra impressione6. Cade un altro fiore: se continuano a cadere così, penso, l’acqua dello stagno diventerà rossa. Mi sembra che intorno ai fiori che galleggiano serenamente ci sia un alone vermiglio. Ne cade un altro. Rimane così quietamente sospeso che quasi non si capisce se sia caduto sul terreno o sull’acqua.”
