"Saya berpikir betapa menakjubkannya dunia mengandung begitu banyak kehidupan. Di jalan-jalan ini orang-orang terlibat dalam ribuan hal yang berbeda, masalah uang, masalah cinta, masalah sekolah. Orang-orang jatuh cinta, menikah, pergi ke rehabilitasi narkoba, belajar cara bermain sepatu luncur es, mendapatkan bifokal, belajar untuk ujian, mencoba pakaian, memotong rambut, dan dilahirkan. Dan di beberapa rumah orang menjadi tua dan sakit dan sekarat, meninggalkan yang lain untuk berduka. Itu terjadi sepanjang waktu, tanpa disadari, dan itu adalah hal yang sangat penting."

--- Jeffrey Eugenides

Versi Bahasa Inggris

I was thinking how amazing it was that the world contained so many lives. Out in these streets people were embroiled in a thousand different matters, money problems, love problems, school problems. People were falling in love, getting married, going to drug rehab, learning how to ice-skate, getting bifocals, studying for exams, trying on clothes, getting their hair-cut and getting born. And in some houses people were getting old and sick and were dying, leaving others to grieve. It was happening all the time, unnoticed, and it was the thing that really mattered.
