I don't want to be an idol of the crowd. The crowd loves those who are amused by it and who serves it. But in order to entertain her and love her. I don't like anyone, and especially the crowd, because she's the same as women cheating on those who love them.

What a boring thing this life is! And as it is useless! To get up every morning, wear shoes, shave, speak with strangers, to look at the clock that keep coming back to the place where they a thousand times already. Is. There are pieces of corpses, there are dead fruit; even worse - rotting; to pluck these beautiful fruits in order to pass them through our body. To swallow carrion, yet do not become dead.

As soon as people arrive in the singular in a foreign country, he now begins to experience bouts of desperate loneliness. His thoughts constantly returning to the faces, streets and walls, which he left. If he meets a woman who will make concessions, then it will create him a new world, new home; her tenderness - a genuine or artificial - creates around him a sort of a safety capsule.
