“For I do not exist: there exist but the thousands of mirrors that reflect me. With every acquaintance I make, the population of phantoms resembling me increases. Somewhere they live, somewhere they multiply. I alone do not exist.”
“I do not exist to impress the world. I exist to live my life in a way that will make me happy. ”
“I like it that order exists somewhere even if it shatters near me.”
“I almost do not exist now and I know it; God knows what lives in me in place of me.”
“I don’t know if you or I exist, but somewhere there are poems about us.”
“But never in the four hundred years now since I was born, have I ever seen anything to make me doubt whether God exists in some form or the other. Not even the reflection in the mirror.”
