“No, no, dear. I know you better than you know yourself. I’ve had my eye on you for a long time now, and I see that you’re in need of someone to go arm in arm with you through life, someone who’s spent long years studying life.”

“You’re in bad shape. It looks like you’re developing a soul.”
“That’s…very dangerous,” I murmured.
“Incurable.”

“In front, to the side, behind, this gray-blue two dimensional shadow. People walk through it, step on it, but it’s always right there all the same, next to me, attached by an invisible umbilical cord.”

“That means you love it. You’re afraid of it because it’s stronger than you, you hate it because you’re afraid of it, you love it because you can’t master it. You can only love something that refuses to be mastered.”

“Our gods are here below, with us, in the Bureau, in the kitchen, in the shop, in the toilet. The gods have become like us—ergo, we’ve become like gods. And we’re headed your way, my unknown planetary readers, we’re coming to make your life divinely rational and precise, like ours.”

”Now I don’t know what’s there. I’ve learned too much. Knowledge that is absolutely sure it’s infallible—that’s faith. I had firm faith in myself, i believed i knew everything about myself.”

“…we’re a triangle, maybe not isosceles but still a triangle. If you want to put it in the language of our ancestors (a language that might be more understandable to you, my planetary readers), we’re a family. And sometimes it is so good to rest, even if not for long, to lock yourself up in a strong simple triangle away from all that …”

“Your knowledge is nothing but cowardice. No, really, that’s all it is. You just want to put a little wall around infinity. And you’re afraid to look on the other side of that wall.”

“An idea hit me: The way the human body is built, it’s just as stupid as those ‘apartments’ — human heads are opaque and there’s no way to see inside except through those tiny little windows, the eyes.”

“moving through the sky of the month May, its blue majolica, and the light sun was zooming along behind us in its own golden aero, keeping up but never passing.”

“I have faith that you will understand how hard it is for me to write, harder than for any other writer in the whole extent of human history: They wrote for their contemporaries, others wrote for prosperity, but nobody ever wrote for their ancestors or for people like their wild remote ancestors…”

“You, meanwhile, you might be anywhere…on the moon, on Venus, on Mars, on Mercury. Who knows you, where you are and who you are?”
