And if I still cling to a few hopes, I have lost forever the faculty of hoping

Dau în scris, pentru toat? lumea care va veni dup? mine, c? n-am în ce s? cred pe acest p?mînt ÅŸi c? unica sc?pare este uitarea absolut?. AÅŸ vrea s? uit de tot, s? m? uit complet, s? nu mai ÅŸtiu nimic de mine ÅŸi de lumea aceasta. Adev?ratele confesiuni nu se pot scrie decît cu lacrimi. Dar lacrimile mele ar îneca aceast? lume, precum focul meu interior ar incendia-o.

I watch the men in the hospital, in the streets--some of these men are pretty awful people, they really are slimy sewer scum, do anything to pay down on the car, to meet the damn car payments--they don't care about women, or men, or nobody. It just seems so hopeless.

People aren't overcome by situations or outside forces; defeat invades from within, I thought. I had lost my last ounce of strength.
