“Begitu dingin air itu ketika ia memasukkan kedua tangannya. Begitu jelas kedua tangnnya tampak di sana, dan betapa hal semacam itu memberikan kedamaian.
Tapi mengapa begitu sulit manusia menemukan kedamaian?
Ia membasuk wajahnya dengan air jernih dan dingin itu. Betapa hidup bagaikan menjadi baru kembali. Ia minum setguk dua teguk dari aliran bening itu. Betapa dunia berdenyut dengan tenaga yang baru sama sekali.
Tapi mengapa manusia begitu sulit mendapatkan sesuatu yang baru untuk hidupnya?
Jika kedamaian begitu sederhana, mengapa manusia tak mampu melihatnya?”

“Begitulah kehidupan, kawan yang suatu waktu dulu begitu rapat, begitu mesra pada waktu lain menjadi begitu jauh dan malahan tak pernah bertemu. Dalam waktu sama terbentuk pula kawan-kawan yang baru oleh pelbagai sebab - sama ada kerana profesion yang sama ataupun kerana bekerja di pejabat yang sama atau tinggal pada satu kawasan kejiranan yang sama.
Sementara itu keluarga terdekat, seperti misalnya sepupu dan seumpamanya, oleh sebab tidak tinggal berdekatan menjadi jauh dan semakin jauh. Anak-anak masing-masing tidak pernah lagi kenal-mengenal antara satu sama lain - masing-masing sibuk dengan tugas dan tanggungjawab masing-masing. Kalau berjumpa pun hanya sesekali apabila ada kenduri-kendara ataupun apabila ada sesuatu kematian dalam keluarga.”

“Beh, disse la signora Delgado, lei è un intellettuale, dica quello che sta succedendo in Europa, esprima il suo libero pensiero, insomma faccia qualcosa. Sostiene Pereira che avrebbe voluto dire molte cose. Avrebbe voluto rispondere che sopra di lui c’era il suo direttore, il quale era un personaggio del regime, e che poi c’era il regime, con la sua polizia e la sua censura, e che in Portogallo tutti erano imbavagliati, insomma che non si poteva esprimere liberamente la propria opinione, e che lui passava la giornata in una misera stanzuccia in Rua Rodrigo la Fonseca, in compagnia di un ventilatore asmatico e sorvegliato da una portiera che probabilmente era una confidente della polizia. Ma non disse niente di tutto questo, Pereira, disse solo: farò del mio meglio, signora Delgado, ma non è facile fare del proprio meglio in un paese come questo per una perdona come me, sa, io non sono Thomas Mann, sono solo un oscuro direttore della pagina culturale di un modesto giornale del pomeriggio, faccio qualche ricorrenza di scrittori illustri e traduco racconti dell’Ottocento francese, di poi non si può fare. Capisco, replicò la signora Delgado, ma forse tutto si può fare, basta averne la volontà. Pereira guardò fuori dal finestrino e sospirò.”

“behalte den flug im gedächtnis
ob schnee lag. ob uniformierte patroullierten. ob
es morgen war oder abend. ob viele taschentücher
aufgebraucht wurden. ob ich müde war. ob über-
haupt jemand an der absperrung stand. ob die luft
anders roch als sonst. ob die grenzer am flughafen
nett waren oder bedrohlich. ob wir gefrühstückt
hatten an diesem tag. ob ich ein buch im handgepäck
hatte. ob ich mich von irgendjemandem verabschie-
det habe. ob die sonne schien. ob ich angst hatte. ob
ich einen fensterplatz oder einen am gang hatte. ob
ich den berg in wahrheit überhaupt sehen konnte.
ob die geschwister quengelig waren. ob wir abends
irgendjemandem bescheid gegeben haben. ob ich
verstand, warum die frau ständig von heimat sprach.
ob ich ahnte, dass der mann nicht ahnte, dass es für
immer war. ob ich vorher noch einmal durch den
garten gegangen bin. ob jemand die tür hinter uns
schloss. ob ich mich noch einmal umgedreht habe.”

“Behave in life as at a dinner party. Is anything brought around to you? Put out your hand and take your share with moderation. Does it pass by you?
Do not stop it. Is it not yet come? Do not stretch your desire towards it, but wait till it reaches you. Do this with regard to children, to a spouse, to public post, to riches, and you will eventually be a worthy guest at the feast of life.”
