“An artisan without memories, whose only dream was to die of fatigue in the oblivion and misery of his little gold fishes.”

“a dream is only a memory of the future”

“What are we, after all, without our memories … without our dreams?”

“People leave strange little memories of themselves behind when they die.”

“Their [the Jews] rotten and unbending stiffneckedness deserves that they be oppressed unendingly and without measure or end and that they die in their misery without the pity of anyone.”

“For we die every day; oblivion thrives”

“I, the solitary fish, a fish apart
(apart at least from the tree fish and the stone fish),
write, at isolated moments, a tiny fish or two
whose glittering scales, so fleeting,
may only be the dark's embarrassed wink.”

“My best friends are my memories
They're the only ones that save me from misery”

“Live the Dream, Dream the Fish”

“it's love by whom (my beautiful friend) the gift to live is without until:
…love was and shall be this only truth (a dream of a deed, born not to die)”
