“We are not native. We have no generations of Americans behind us. We have roots elsewhere. We are looking in from the outside. To me, that seems to be perfectly natural.”

“Ciò che lui trovava stupefacente era il modo in cui gli uomini sembravano esaurire la propria essenza – esaurire la materia, qualunque fosse, che li rendeva quello che erano – e, svuotati di se stessi, trasformarsi nelle persone di cui un tempo avrebbero avuto pietà. Era come se, mentre la loro vita era ricca e piena, essi fossero, in segreto, stufi di se stessi e non vedessero l’ora di liberarsi del loro discernimento, della loro salute e di ogni senso delle proporzioni per passare all’altro io, il vero io: che era uno stronzo detestabile e completamente illuso. Era come se trovarsi in sintonia con la vita fosse qualcosa di accidentale che poteva capitare, certe volte, ai giovani fortunati; mentre, per il resto, era una cosa con la quale gli essere umani non riuscivano a rapportarsi. Che strano.”
