"(Dari cerita The Last Days of a Mime Terkenal) Dia tidak mengatakan apa-apa. Dia sedikit kesal pada anggapannya: bahwa dia tidak memikirkan ini banyak, berkali-kali sebelumnya. Dengan kesalahpahaman yang sempurna, dia menafsirkan kepasifannya sebagai penghinaan. Ingin menyakitinya, dia menampar wajahnya. Ingin menyakitinya, dia tersenyum cemerlang."

(From the story The Last Days of a Famous Mime) He said nothing. He was mildly annoyed at her presumption: that he had not thought this many, many times before. With perfect misunderstanding she interpreted his passivity as disdain. Wishing to hurt him, she slapped his face. Wishing to hurt her, he smiled brilliantly.
