Quotes by Sylvia Iparraguirre (?)

“For the one who writes it . . . a story is like a mirror.”

“El mundo sería intolerable sin las historias que lo adornan, que lo magnifican, que lo oscurecen o lo exacerban. Los objetos, la realidad, las ciudades serían mera materia bruta, palpable; ¿qué sería Elsinor sin Hamlet?, ¿qué sería Elsinor, ahí, en Dinamarca (sólo había que cruzar el canal), y su castillo de Kronborg junto a Copenhague? Un nombre como miles, un lugar en el mapa sin ninguna particularidad que lo distinguiera de otros cientos de lugares de Suecia o de Irlanda; todos los lugares terminan pareciéndose.”
― Sylvia Iparraguirre, Encuentro con Munch
