“Op een zondagochtend begin april zit ik op een onguur vroeg tijdstip te chagrijnen in de trein naar Venray. Ik ben moe, overwerkt en depressief. Het is al weken achtereen koud en nat en gisteren is voor de vijfde of zesde keer in een jaar tijd mijn fiets gestolen, nadat ik de sleuteltjes in het slot heb laten zitten, dus ik moet kennelijk een oprukkende dementie onder ogen zien. Zou het schrijven van een laatste boek me nog vergund zijn? Half duttend, half lezend in de sombere briefwisseling tussen Reve en Hermans uit de benauwde jaren vijftig, vraag ik me af waarom ik in vredesnaam ingegaan ben op de uitnodiging voor een literaire zondagochtend in 'What the Fuck Is' Venray? Laat ik eens ophouden met die flauwekul. Ik ben toch geen debutant meer!”

Een grappige gedachte. Niemand ziet het, maar ik glimlach.”

“Op zijn hurken ging hij zitten kijken hoe twintig mieren het sleepwerk organiseerden van een vracht honderdmaal zo zwaar als zijzelf. Mieren, een reuzenvolk dat bij miljarden uitzwermde over de aarde. Mieren in honderden soorten, mieren die andere mieren melkten en mieren die wolkenkrabbers bouwden en bomen afbraken. Mieren, éen kleine donkere glinstering van de grote onbegrepen kosmische kracht die leven heet.”
