- "Citav nas zivot moze da bude jedna puka fikcija, jedna strasna igra u zagrljaju bunila, jedna usijana iluzija prosijana na rubu stvarnosti. Jedino je smrt realna. Ona je jedino sto nam se u zivotu stvarno dogajdja. Pa opet nepojmljiva. Nepojmljiva i nevjerovatna. Svaki se zivot odigrava u nekakvom, mada i iluzornom, mada i proizvoljnom, sistemu koordinata;na nekoj, mada i cudnoj, sahovskoj ploci.

- "Rita clearly cared. She wasn't signing up new members or asking for money. She only wanted people to know that her loving God was going to kill billions of people in a couple of weeks and some heavy duty praying was in order. I walked away from our conversation sad for her. Strange as it may seem, I almost wanted the world to end just so this sweet misguided woman wouldn't have to face her own internal psychological Armageddon."
