September 1, 1964:
I am going mad with love, mad. He was here, here next to me.
Thousands of uncovered things stand before me
Before Predrag [her first boyfriend] and me.
Uncovering them,
finding that sound, that forgotten ring,
that drop of hope before the first light~
without an agreement, without any agreement,
still untouched, touched by nothing
In peace,
In self.

Mnich do Mariny: - Wszystko będzie się toczyć, bo i tak się toczy. Przypomnij sobie historię Buddy - otrzymał oświecenie, ale dopiero wtedy, kiedy całkowicie się poddał. Czasami robisz, co tylko możesz, żeby osiągnąć cel, ale nic z tego nie wychodzi, bo kosmos ma wobec ciebie inne plany.

Pain is a door. A secret door into a different state. Without these doors you can't reach it. Afterwards, you no longer fear pain.
