    Dzīve ir kā skolas klase, kuras uzraugs ir Apnikums, tas visu laiku lūr, ko tu dari, par katru cenu vajag imitēt aizņemtību, izlikties, ka dari kaut ko aizraujošu, citādi viņš pienāk klāt un izēd tev smadzenes. Diena, kurā būtu tikai divdesmit četras stundas, nebūtu izturama. Dienai ir jābūt ilgai, teju neizturamai baudai, nepārtrauktam dzimumaktam, gribi vai negribi.

    In any first-class work of art, you can find passages that in themselves are extremely boring, but try to cut them out, as they are in an abridged edition, and you lose the life of the work. Don't think that art that is alive can remain on the same level of interest throughout — and the same is true of life.
