Cees Nooteboom cytaty

„Choć jeden ogród zoologiczny na tym świecie powinien przecież mieć odwagę wyciągnięcia konsekwencji z naszego pochodzenia. Klatka z homo sapiens we wszystkich jego zróżnicowanych wcieleniach, może wtedy lepiej byśmy się rozumieli. Oczywiście pojawia się pytanie, czy spodobałoby się to pozostałym zwierzętom.”

“From the number of self-murderers he had known-you had to put it that way, for the fact that someone died rounded off your knowledge of that person, if only because he or she could no longer present you with surprises-he was able to conclude that his circle of acquaintance must consist of a thousand people. If he were to invite all these voluntary dead to tea, two boxes of cream cakes from Berkhof's would scarcely suffice.”
