'He doesn't have plans. He is a Coetzee, Coetzees don't have plans, they don't have ambitions, they only have idle longings. He has an idle longing to live in the Karoo.'
'His ambition is to be a poet, a full-time poet. This Merweville scheme has nothing to do with his father's welfare. He wants a place in the Karoo where he can come when it suits him, where he can sit with his chin on his hands and contemplate the sunset and write poems.'

Op sy ou ramkiekie maak oom gedigte. Die wereld is ons woning nie . . . What is sir doing? - Sir is making poems. On his old banjo sir is making poems. This world is not our dwelling-place . . .
