“La muerte no debería causar tanto dolor, no tendría por qué ser tan inútilmente cruel”
Fernando Soto Aparicio
tags: muerte

“Pero le repito, Llovizna: debemos olvidarnos de los malos y los buenos en este ejercicio de vivir. Ellos tienen un pensamiento, nosotros otro muy distinto. Eso no los hace mejores ni nos hace peores. Somos producto, tanto indios como blancos, de las imperfecciones que llevamos de rastras las personas.”
Fernando Soto Aparicio, Los Hijos del Viento

“Progresa el hombre cuando crece su espíritu, pero no cuando engorda su bolsillo o se desboca su ambición.”
Fernando Soto Aparicio, Los Hijos del Viento
