Мы как раз вышли на улицу, когда упали первые бомбы. Как описать этот кошмар? Я бы сказал так: гнев Божий не идет ни в какое сравнение с гневом человеческим. Люди в ужасе метались вокруг, не понимая, куда бежать, земля дрожала, дома рушились. Мир разлетался на части, мир погибал. Я попытался отыскать какое-нибудь более или менее безопасное место, чтобы укрыться, но единственная мысль, посетившая меня, сводилась к тому, что человеческая жизнь, в конце концов, для нас же самих очень мало что значит.

[A] writer’s most powerful weapon, his true strength, was his intuition, and regardless of whether he had any talent, if the critics combined to discredit an author’s nose for things, he would be reduced to a fearful creature who took a mistakenly guarded, absurdly cautious approach to his work, which would end up stifling his latent genius.

Ultimately it was man's limited senses which established the boundaries of the world.

Time could only be seen in the falling leaves, a wound that healed, a woodworm's tunneling, rust that spread, and hearts that grew weary. Without anyone to discern it, time was nothing, nothing at all.

Intelligence could not thrive where there was no change and no necessity for change.
