" We are all born mad. Some remain so."
" Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes, it's awful!"
" Nothing is funnier than unhappiness."
" What do we do now?"
" What do I know of man's destiny? I could tell you more about radishes."
“ I can't go on. I'll go on.”
“ The past is not dead. It's not even past.”
“ We are all born mad. Some remain so.”
“ What do we do now? Wait.”
“ Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.”
