“Anggap saja pertemuan di awal huruf dalam doaku adalah sapaan manja untukmu
Aku akan mengajakmu menyusuri barisan puisi
Kubangun sebuah pohon rindang agar kita bisa berteduh dari jauhnya jarak pandang
Setiap waktu hatiku meredamkan gelisah langkahnya
Ada gurat rasa yang masih merunduk malu-malu untuk kumengerti
Disetiap alur jalan yang Allah hadiahkan
Kita masih berpapasan, menatap jawaban,
Sebab mata masih enggan bersinggungan
Diantara poros takdir, kuingin engkaulah rotasiku
Tempat barisan ingatan berputar pada titik yang sama,
Terjebak dalam lingkaran bahagia yang tak berjeda
Kisah yang belum runtun ini biarkan Allah menata
Karena kita telah menitipkannya, maka percayakan ia pada penciptaNya”

She wasn’t. She tried to step across the border of who she was and who she might be. They wouldn’t let her. She didn’t believe it herself so she stepped across into a whole other country.”

“Angin bertiup di kerut sendunya wajahmu
Terlukis indah dunia yg melekat di bibirmu
Engkau tersenyum seakan berharap namun tak mau
Engkau berbalik seakan melangkah namun tak melaju
Ku sapa bayang terpapar lurus pundak ditata
Ku coba selaras ikuti arah melayang disana
Mengapa engkau seakan tak tergoncang alunan tersapa
Mengapa terlihat biasa tak terhirau merana di kata
Kecewa diri tersadar berdiri menyendiri
Terlena diawan petir gejolak me-ngingini
Sudah, sudah angan begitu ter-begini
Akhirnya tau tau kau hanyalah Mimpi
Ia, engkau mimpi
Mimpiku sendiri.

“Angin tak pernah mengeluh,
menghempas debu jalanan.
Hujan tak pernah lalai,
dalam rinai syahdu pun teruntai.
Dawai.
Damai.
Bumi enggan mengaduh,
barangkali sudah jengah diinjak dan diludah.
Barangkali demikian aku.
Dalam rindu kuku terendap waktu.”

“Angkor is perhaps the greatest of Man's essays in rectangular architecture that has yet been brought to life.”
“Angla, zei moeder. Onze koe. Die kun je meenemen.
Maar Karl Orsa was niet uit op Angla en ook niet op het geld; maar een ieder wordt verzocht, als hij door zijn eigen begeerten verlokt wordt; hij had zijn zinnen op moeder gezet.
Een hele koe, zei moeder. Als dat niet genoeg is, weet ik het niet.
Maar hij wilde niet, het leek wel of die koe hem moest worden opgedrongen.
Het hooi is in maart toch op, zei moeder. We hebben toch niet genoeg. En wat moeten we dan beginnen? je kunt haar net zo goed meenemen. In het voorjaar hebben we toch alleen maar last van haar.
Ten slotte kon hij er niet meer omheen, om die duivelse koe.
Dan gaan we maar eens kijken, zei hij. Niet om het een of ander. Maar omdat jij er zo op aandringt, Tea.
In de stal kneep hij zowaar in Angla en hij bekeek de poten en streek met zijn hand over de rug.
Hoe oud is ze? vroeg hij.
Ze wordt dit najaar tien, zei moeder.
Vel over been, zei Karl Orsa, meer niet.
En hij had gelijk, veel bijzonders was Angla niet. Een oude koe, zonder de minste levenslust.
Ge kende zelfs Angla, Heer. Het was zoals het was.
En Karl Orsa liet zijn blik langs de uiers gaan.
Wondjes aan de spenen, zei hij. Lege uiers.
Daarna wierp hij een steelse blik op moeder, zij had een volle, vaste boezem. Je kon zien dat hij dacht: die tieten.
Maar voor de slacht? probeerde moeder. Als slacht-koe?
Toen moest hij voor de tweede keer met zijn ogen en handen over Angla heen gaan, ook van slachtdieren had hij verstand.
Veel vlees zit er niet aan, zei hij. Veel meer dan een skelet is het niet. Een lege ruiter. een scharminkel.
Weer wierp hij een steelse blik op moeder en je kon zien dat hij dacht: vlees.
Moeders laatste voorstel was:
En de huid dan? Er blijft toch een koeiehuid over?
Maar zelfs daar viel niet over te praten.
Aan huiden heb je niets. Er is geen mens die huiden koopt. Vooral geen koeiehuiden. Er zijn heel wat meer koeiehuiden dan levende koeien. Wat een dwaze gedachte!
Ook op de huid van moeder wierp hij een steelse blik, ze had blote armen en een blote hals en je kon zien dat hij nu zeker wist hoe de pacht voor dit jaar betaald zou worden.”

“Anglers have a way of romanticizing their battles with fish and of forgetting that the fish has a hook in his mouth, his gullet, or his belly and that his gameness is really an extreme of panic in which he runs, leaps, and pulls to get away until he dies. It would seem to be enough advantage to the angler that the fish has the hook in his mouth rather than the angler.”
“Anglers have a way of romanticizing their battles with fish.”
“Anglers may be divided into almost as many genera and species as the fish they catch, and engage in the sport from as many impulses.”
