-Dogs are our connection to heaven. They do not know malice, jealousy or resentment. Sitting with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is like being back in Eden, where sitting around doing nothing wasn't boring – it was peaceful.
-Making love to a woman and sleeping with a woman are two different passions, not just different, but opposite. Love is not felt in the desire for mating (a desire that extends to an infinite number of women), but in the desire to share sleep (a desire limited to one woman).
- People always shout that they want to create a better future. It's not true. The future is an apathetic void that nobody cares about. The past is full of life, ready to irritate, provoke and offend us, to tempt us to destroy or remake it. The only reason people want to be masters of the future is to change the past.
There is no perfection, there is only life
- We all need someone to see us. We can be divided into four categories, according to the type of vision we need. The first category wants the gaze of an infinite number of anonymous eyes, in other words, the gaze of the public. The second category consists of people who have a vital need to be seen by many familiar eyes. These are the tireless organizers of cocktail parties and dinner parties. These are happier than people in the first category, who, when they lose the audience, feel as if the lights have gone out in the room of their lives. It happens to all of them, sooner or later. People in the second category, on the other hand, can always have the eyes they need. Then there is the third category, the category of people who want to be constantly in front of the eyes of the person they love. Their situation is as dangerous as the situation of people in the first category. One day, their beloved's eyes will close, and the room will fall into darkness. And finally, there is the fourth, rarest category, the category of people who live in the imaginary eyes of those who are not present. These are the dreamers."
-... And here lies the great plight of man. Man's time does not come round in a circular shape; it moves forward in a straight line. Therefore man cannot be happy: happiness is the desire for repetition.
Loves are like empires, when the idea on which they are built collapses, they too fade and disappear.
Suddenly Plato's Symposium came to mind: Humans were hermaphrodites, until God split them in two, and now all the halves roam the world, looking for each other. Love is the plea for our other half, which we have lost
-Anyone whose objective is "something higher" should expect to suffer from vertigo one day. What is dizziness? Fear of falling? No, vertigo is different from the fear of falling. It is the voice of the void below us, that lures and tempts us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.
- Chance and only chance has a message for us. Everything that happens out of necessity, everything that is expected, that is repeated every day, is dumb. Only chance can speak to us.
- The struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against oblivion.
- Every man is responsible for his ignorance.
-Ne ecim nëpër të tashmen me sytë e lidhur. Na lejohet vetëm të ndjejmë dhe hamendësojmë atë që po përjetojmë në të vërtetë. Vetëm më vonë, kur lecka na sytë na është hequr, ne shohim të kaluarëm dhe zbulojmë se çfarë përjetuam dhe çfarë domethënie kishte ajo që përjetuam.
-Budallallëku i njerëzve buron nga fakti që kanë një përgjigje për çdo gjë. Urtësia e romanit buron nga fakti që ka një pyetje për çdo gjë… Shkrimtari i mëson lexuesit që ta kuptojë botën si një pyetje. Ka urtësi dhe tolerancë në atë qasje. Në një botë të ndërtuar mbi siguri të shenjta, romani është i vdekur. Bota totalitare, qoftë e themeluar nga Marksi, Islami, apo çdo gjë tjetër, është një botë përgjigjesh dhe jo pyetjesh. Atje, romani nuk ka vend.
- How could she feel nostalgia, when he was there, right in front of her eyes? How can you suffer from the absence of a man, when he is present? / Bota.al
