Magari potresti provarci, a ricominciare da zero. Non intendo ricominciare e basta, quello l'hanno fatto tutti. Da zero significa da zero. Significa prendere e andare. Cioè, se tutto quello che hai e...
La gente si preparava sempre al domani. A me sembrava assurdo. Il domani non si stava certo preparando per loro. Non sapeva neppure che esistessero.
Ive seen the meanness of humans till I dont know why God aint put out the sun and gone away.
It took two days to cross that ashen scabland. The road beyond fell away on every side. It's snowing, the boy said. He looked at the sky. A single gray flake sifting down. He caught it in his hand and...
