" "Веднъж чух как моят завеждащ-отдел казва на един колега: „Този човек е празен отвътре“. Не се подвоумих, грабнах снимката на Голям Гальовник, която винаги нося в портфейла си, заедно с доказателствата за съществуването си - документи за самоличност, застраховка срещу всякакви рискове, и показах на моя завеждащ-отдел, че съм „пълен отвътре“. — Мога ли да ви попитам - каза той - защо си взехте питон, а не някакво по-обичливо животно? — Питоните са много обичливи. По природа лесно се привързват. Увиват се — Само затова ли? — Никой не го искаше.

[...] Do you remember about the prehistoric reptile, the an- cestor of man, the first to emerge from the mud in early Paleozoic times, a milliard years ago, who set out to live in the air and to breathe, even though he had no lungs? [...] Well, he was mad too. Absolutely bats. That’s why he tried. He’s the ancestor of us all, and we shouldn’t forget it. But for him we wouldn’t be here. He was as crazy as they come. We too have got to try. That's what progress is. By trying like him, perhaps we’ll wind up with the necessary organs, the organ of dignity, of decency, or of fraternity.
Je peux encore tout rater, disait Lila, je suis assez jeune pour ça. Quand on vieillit, on a de moins en moins de chances de tout rater parce qu'on n'a plus le temps, et on peut vivre tranquillement en se contentant de ce qu'on a raté déjà. C'est ce qu'on entend par « paix de l'esprit ». Mais quand on n'a que seize ans et qu'on peut encore tout tenter et ne rien réussir, c'est ce qu'on appelle en général « avoir de l'avenir »...
