|  Lands of great discoveries are also lands of great injustices. | | Between the fear that something would happen and the hope that still it wouldn't, there is much more space than one thinks. On that narrow, hard, bare and dark space a lot of us spend their lives. | | There is no rule without revolts and conspiracies, even as there is no property without work and worry. | | One shouldn't be afraid of the humans. Well, I am not afraid of the humans, but of what is inhuman in them. | | When I am not desperate, I am worthless. | | If people would know how little brain is ruling the world, they would die of fear. | | Searching for what I need, and I don't even know precisely what that is, I was going from a man to a man, and I saw that all of them together have less than me who has nothing, and that I left to each of them a bit of that what I don't have and I've been searching for. | | What can and doesn't have to be always, at the end, surrenders to something that has to be. | | Sadness is also a kind of defence. |
