Quotes by Michel Laub (?)

“Je moet de dingen echter bij hun naam noemen om ze vast te leggen in de tijd, en ze kunnen wegsterven als wat ze in feite waren opdat er iets even waars uit geboren wordt.”
― Michel Laub, Het donderdagtribunaal

“No inicio de um relacionamento tudo é frágil, basta uma palavra dita fora de hora, um telefonema que não foi feito ou a menção a alguém que parece ter mais importância do que tem, o temperamento que você ainda conhece e soa indevidamente agressivo ou distante, e a pessoa que nasceu para estar do seu lado vai embora sem que você tenha a chance de saber disso.”
― Michel Laub, O Tribunal da Quinta-Feira

“Um relacionamento já é tão frágil de qualquer modo, e sempre chega o dia em que o desejo diminui, e o encantamento dá lugar a outra coisa, a medida de dor e incomunicabilidade que duas pessoas aguentam ao tentar construir algo sólido sobre a terra que pede para ser arrasada (...).”
― Michel Laub, O Tribunal da Quinta-Feira
