The only thing I can be sure of at any given time is what I am thinking myself. I have no idea what the others are thinking. Do they think space is big and dangerous? I do. What do they believe in? I think nobody ought to be alone. That one should be with someone. With friends. With the person one loves. I think it is important to love. I think it's the most important thing.
Erlend LoeThe only question that really counts, must be thins one: are things getting better or are they getting worse?
Erlend LoeI think I'm more concerned with things that are very big and things that are very small than with all the stuff in between.
Erlend LoeThere are too many confusing things present. Things I know. Thoughts I have. Sarcasm. Things I think I ought to be doing and places I ought to be going. Always other places.
Erlend LoeโฆI donโt wish to meet people. They disgust me. Increasingly so. But I must have milk.
Erlend Loe...the total number of galaxies in the universe seems to be in the region of ten billion, and that each of them has about a hundred billion stars the size of the sun. These numbers are so absurd that I strangely find myself in a good mood. It's all so immense. I think Paul feels a bit like this as well. There is so little I can do to make a difference. It is liberating.
