The Blue-stockings 22: The blue-stocking declaiming her play -Act 6 Scene 1... the theatre shows a tiger asleep in the desert... Rosalba barely drags herself forward, and does so with even greater difficulty because of her five children and her aged father: -Rosalba falls at the foot of a date-palm covered with coconuts, and cries in despair: Oh heaven, when will our torments finish. -The entire audience (in a low voice): ‘and ours, too, when will they finish, oh heaven!’

Strangers in Paris 3: What is called dining in a restaurant: -Waiter!...I've been in your establishment for an hour and a quarter without having a chair...and you've still only given the tooth-picks to my wife who's dying of hunger... you'll make me lose my normal posture, and I'll end up with my feet in the dish... do you understand, waiter! -There now, Sir... there there now, there there!!!

(Left) The little village on the far mountainside was already out of sight, and spring was coming around again. The grape trees were like large ailing snakes creeping under the coping stones of the wall. A brown light moved about in the tepid air. The void created by the selfsame every day is likely to chop down even the young trees that were left behind. In this everyday life, a thicket of trees protrudes like a boulder. 

 (Right) The village I lived in has never been thought of as so small. The sun showed itself. The tall poplar forest looks like a beach being blown about by the wind. I grow dizzy just watching that seamless succession. If I can manage to get drunk on this succession of unchanging days, I can also grow to feel like I have taken down an elephant or snake. He differentiated things in this way, like a fluttering butterfly
