“Men jeg ser dig alligevel klart. Selvom jeg ikke nødvendigvis ser dig sandt. Måske ser jeg dele af dig, ingen andre kan se. Måske er sandheden om et menneske kalejdoskopisk. Alle blikkene udgør tilsammen et prisme, som er dig.”

I have formed a beautiful observer: you.”

“No deseaba recurrir a una persona que ve la pena como un trabajo que elaborar. No deseaba elaborar ningún trabajo. No deseaba contribuir a esa visión de la pena como un trabajo. La sola idea de que la pena es un trabajo que elaborar para curarse me subleva. Yo no tenía fuerzas para trabajar. Yo deseaba que alguien me acariciase la mejilla y me calmase. Yo deseaba cuidados, no trabajo. Yo deseaba que alguien apartase esa pena que me oprimía el pecho, aunque solo fuese un instante”

“La maggior parte di ciò che leggo a proposito di crudo dolore e lamento è frammentario. È caotico, non artistico. Spesso chi scrive non fa caso alle maiuscole dopo il punto. Spesso non ha la forza di completare il frammento di testo cominciato. Non può essere completato. Lo scritto resta aperto facendo traboccare la sua inettitudine attraverso tutto ciò che non può essere scritto. Un buco attraverso cui vibra la morte. Non è possibile scrivere in modo artistico del dolore crudo. Non esiste forma adeguata.”
