““Varljivo je brdo Život, nema šta... I verući se Uz i silazeći Niz patimo za predelima s one strane vrha, a vrh je senka, tren, senka trena, Vrh je najveća prevara u čitavoj priči... Čim ga dotaknemo on potone tromo, kao lubenica na vodi, i već sledećeg trena izroni nam za leđima, obeshrabrujuće uzvodno, plutajući kao velika crna bova koja iz nekih zvezdanih razloga obeležava to razveđe Vremena Koje Nam Je Dato, vremena koje nam je udeljeno, ubogima, kao milostinja pred Crkvom Beskonačnog... Danas je uveliko iščekuješ, a već sutra ti ostaje samo da se sećaš, i tek na kraju ukapiraš da su Prave Stvari uvek s one strane brda, ali ovu misao ipak ne smem pripisati sebi... Zvuči suviše poznato? Neki voštani mandarin iz trećeg milenijuma pre nove ere je sigurno još davno patentirao sličnu izreku””
