“People who are rather more than six feet tall and nearly as broad across the shoulders often have uneventful journeys. People jump out at them from behind rocks then say things like, "Oh. Sorry. I thought you were someone else.”

“Peter je zo svojho každodenného života zvyknutý dosť času tráviť sám, a tak mu to vyhovuje. Raz za čas sa skrátka potrebuje zamyslieť a zasnívať. Ak tú možnosť dlhodobo nemá, čo sa mu stane prvý raz práve tu v letnom tábore, začnú sa ho zmocňovať chmúrne myšlienky a úzkosť. Potrebuje samotu, aby unikol osamelosti. Osamelosť totiž nevzniká tým, že by človek nemal okolo seba ľudí, ale tým, že s nimi nemôže zdieľať veci, ktoré ho bavia a ktoré sa mu javia ako dôležité. A naopak, keď on považuje za nezmyselné veci, ktoré pre ostatných hrajú zásadnú úlohu. V takom prípade je potom už lepšia naozajstná, fyzická samota, keď si môže človek tráviť čas celkom po svojom.”

“For the male who dominates and writes, or by writing dominates, the woman has always been portrayed with hostility from the earliest times. Let us not be deceived by angelic descriptions of women. On the contrary, precisely because great literature is dominated by sweet, gentle creatures, the world of satire—which is that of the popular imagination—continually demonizes the woman, from antiquity, through the Middle Ages, and up to modern times.”

“He couldn’t help remembering how much he’d wanted a puppy when he was a little boy. Mind you, they’d been starving – anything with meat on it would have done.”
