Vagrant Sayings

'Without suffering, I'm lost: I wouldn't know what to do without suffering'. W. is reading from a webpage that collects the sayings of vagrants. That's attributed to the Singer, he says.

'"A handshake can judge you': that's Black Sam', W. says. And then several quotes in a row: 'We're all stange people; we're all escapin'; we're all fanatics'; 'You searchin' for somethin', but what? If I could have one spark, just one spark'; 'There's some force that governs. Some gigantic force, but what does it govern?' Who's that?, I ask him. – 'Black Sam again. It's like something from a Malick film', W. says. And then, 'What would your saying be?', he asks. But he knows the answer. 'Vot-vot', he says.
