In the end, of course, there is nothing real about this at all, except for our propensity to let it happen.”

“Rembrandt’s embrace remained imprinted on my soul far more profoundly than any temporary expression of emotional support. It had brought me into touch with something within me that lies far beyond the ups and downs of a busy life, something that represents the ongoing yearning of the human spirit, the yearning for a final return, an unambiguous sense of safety, a lasting home. The yearning for a lasting home, brought to consciousness by Rembrandt’s painting, grew deeper and stronger, somehow making the painter himself into a faithful companion and guide.”

Those soiled feet give us to see how the built-up tales of apocalyptic cultural collapse deserve the smile of those who knew bettter all along.”

“REMBULAN ITU MALU
Di suatu waktu
ketika sejumlah insan masih terjaga,
menanti fajar melepas rindunya
kepada penghuni kolong langit.
aku melihat sosok rembulan
bersolek tak seperti biasanya.
ada yang berbeda,
ia tampak kemerahan;
mungkin karena dirinya
sedang tersipu malu.
bagaimana tidak,
adalah sebuah keindahan
saat matahari berjumpa dengan sang rembulan
pada jarak yang sangat dekat;
seperti halnya setiap orang
yang telah lama jauh
menemui kekasihnya kembali.
"tapi...", kata bunga rumput;
"hal penting seringkali tak terlihat dari mata", lanjutnya.”
