“Singurătatea absolută? O concep cîteodată aşa: în tren, pe un culoar ticsit, stînd pe geamantan. Eşti atunci departe nu numai de orice om, mai ales de cei care te împiedică să te mişti; dar eşti departe şi de orice punct fix în spaţiu. Eşti undeva, între o staţie şi alta, rupt de ceva, în drum spre altceva, scos din timp, scos din rost, purtat de tren, purtînd după tine un alt tren, cu oameni, situaţii, mărfuri, idei, una peste alta, în vagoane pe care le laşi în staţii, le pierzi între staţii, le uiţi în spaţii, golind lumea, gonind peste lume, singur, mai singur, nicăieri de singur.

îmi plac curbele căilor ferate. Sînt îndeajuns de plecate pentru ca un tren în viteză să nu cadă în afară, dar şi îndeajuns de puţin plecate pentru ca un tren fără viteză să nu cadă înăuntru. Coexistenţa contrariilor.”
― Constantin Noica, Jurnal filozofic
