"Can I be blamed for wanting a real body, to put my arms around? Without it I too am disembodied. I can listen to my own heartbeat against the bedsprings...but there's something dead about it, something deserted."

"He was lonely because he could imagine himself as anything but himself and as anywhere but where he was. His competitiveness and self-centeredness cut him off from any thought of shared life. He wanted to have more because he thought that having more would make him able to live more, and he was lonely because he never thought of the sources, the places, where he was going to get what he wanted to have, or of what his having it might cost others. It was loneliness that sometimes even he felt; you could see it. A self-praiser has got to accept a big loneliness in order to accept a little credit."

"Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them."

"We have a very precise image - an image at times shameless - of what we have lost, but we are ignorant of what may follow or replace it."
Loss
"He was very religious he believed that he had a secret pact with God which exempted him from doing good in exchange for prayers and piety."
Religion
"A circle drawn on a blackboard, a right triangle, a rhombus--all these are forms we can fully intuit; Ireneo could do the same with the stormy mane of a young colt, a small herd of cattle on a mountainside, a flickering fire and its uncountable ashes, and the many faces of a dead man at a wake. I have no idea how many stars he saw in the sky."
Cognition
"I prayed aloud, less to plead for divine favor than to intimidate the tribe with articulate speech."
Rhetoric
"Whatever one man does, it is as if all men did it. For that reason, it is not unfair that one disobedience in a garden should contaminate all humanity; for that reason it is not unjust that the crucifixion of a single Jew should be sufficient to save it."
Responsibility
"It seemed incredible that this day, a day without warnings or omens, might be that of my implacable death."
Mortality
"Blind to all fault, destiny can be ruthless at one's slightest distraction."

"The library will endure; it is the universe. As for us, everything has not been written; we are not turning into phantoms. We walk the corridors, searching the shelves and rearranging them, looking for lines of meaning amid leagues of cacophony and incoherence, reading the history of the past and our future, collecting our thoughts and collecting the thoughts of others, and every so often glimpsing mirrors, in which we may recognize creatures of the information."
Universe
"We are our memory,we are that chimerical museum of shifting shapes,that pile of broken mirrors."
Philosophy
"He thought that the rose was to be found in its own eternity and not in his words; and that we may mention or allude to a thing, but not express it."
