Why did we become blind, I don't know, perhaps one day we'll find out, Do you want me to tell you what I think, Yes, do, I don't think we did go blind, I think we are blind, Blind but seeing, Blind people who can see, but do not see.
Jose SaramagoThere are plenty of reasons not to put up with the world as it is, and if the book has any kind of message, I suppose that's it.
Jose SaramagoNo human being can achieve all he or she desires in this life except in dreams, so good night all.
Jose SaramagoThe day before is what we bring to the day we're actually living through, life is a matter of carrying along all those days-before just as someone might carry stones, and when we can no longer cope with the load, the work is done, the last day is the only one that is not the day before another day.
