“ A crude age. Peace is stabilized with cannon and bombers, humanity with concentration camps and pogroms. We're living in a time when all standards are turned upsidedown, Kern. Today the aggressor is the shepherd of peace, and the beaten and hunted are the troublemakers of the world. What's more, there are whole races who believe it! ”

“ Srećna sam! Stojao sam i gledao je. Bila je to samo jedna reč, ali reč koju još nikada nisam ovako čuo. Poznavao sam žene, ali su to uvek bili prolazni susreti i doživljaji... Jedan čas zbunjenosti, jedan čas samoće, bekstvo od sebe sama, od očajanja, od praznine. Ništa drugo nisam ni želeo, jer sam naučio da se čovek ni na šta ne može osloniti, nego samo na sebe i jedino na ponekog druga. Sad sam najednom video da nešto predstavljam jednom biću, prosto zato što sam tu, da je ono srećno što sam uz njega. Kada se to kaže, izgleda sasvim jednostavno; ali kad se o tome razmisli, onda je nešto zaista beskrajno. To čoveka može sasvim da izmeni. To je ljubav, pa ipak nešto drugo. Nešto zašta vredi živeti. Muškarac ne može da živi za ljubav. Ali za ljudsko biće može. ”

“ A man can gasp out his life beside youand you feel none of it. Pity, Sympathy, surebut you don't feel the pain. Your belly is whole and that's what counts. A halfyard away someone's world is snuffled out in roaring agonyand you feel nothing. That's the misery of the world. ”
