    Între dragoste și dorință există o simbioză, ceea ceînseamnă că nu pot exista una fără cealaltă. Dorința este un dușman al mulțumirii; dorința este boala unui creier mistuit de febră. Cel care își dorește ceva este un individ bolnav, însuși verbul a dori sugerează o lipsă, un deficit, și la fel e și dorința, un deficit al creierului, o deficiență, o greșeală. Din fericire, acestea pot fi corectate.

    The sky is stained pink and purple, and the shadows are thick, stark brush strokes on the ground. But the air is still warm, and several trees are crowned with tiny green leaves.I like seeing the Wilds this way: skinny, naked, not yet clothed in spring. But reaching, too, grasping and growing, full of want and a thirst for sun that gets slaked a little bit more every day. Soon the Wilds will explode, drunk and vibrant.
