“They lived in rural Michigan in the pre-automobile age, and for the most part they had never been fifty miles away from the farm or the dusty village streets; yet once, ages ago, they had been everywhere and had seen everything, and nothing that happened to them thereafter meant anything much. All that was real had taken place when they were young; everything after that had simply been a process of waiting for death, which did not frighten them much -- they had seen it inflicted in the worst possible way on boys who had not bargained for it, and they had enough of the old-fashioned religion to believe without any question that when they passed over they would simply be rejoining men and ways of living which they had known long ago.”

“Plantar és un començament i replantar una continuació, i no és fàcil discernir què és què. Un cep que es planta sempre serà un punt de partida, un inici d’una vida. Si es replanta, si es posa en els espais buits d’altres que van morir en vinyes ja plantades, és un punt de partida i un punt i seguit.
Que plantar sigui un començament no deixa de ser també una ficció. És imaginar els anys que vindran, els raïms, les formes que agafaran els rabassons i la visió de la uniformitat de la vinya, però també una mitja mentida.
Quin és el començament, doncs?”
