Quote

  • This shabbiness.
    This unspeakable, which, without you remembering when it started, got stuck in your heart, this dull pain, and if you touch where it hurts, it has already moved on again, you simply won't get it to grasp, you can't get him to finally face you. He's kidding you, he's making a fool of you, he's making a fool of you, a fool of your pain, a fool of yourself.
