A frase toda é a seguinte:
The two of us were
spinning around on a blue- green marble in a cold, inhospitable
void, and the whole of defenceless humanity was
spinning around with us. Tears streamed down my face and
they kept coming. I cried and cried and cried.
Love like that takes you by surprise.
Muiito obrigado desde já!

Bola de gude
Marble, no contexto apresentado, parece ser bola de gude, uma vez que diz que eles estavam "spinning around in a (...) void". Parece ser uma figura de linguagem sobre a emoção sentida no momento.
