“Vas con ese miedo, natural, constante, repechando la cuesta, medio ahogado, sin aire, cargado de bidones y de bolsas y se aparece una patrulla, y encima del miedo que traes aparece otro miedo, un miedo fuerte pero chico, como un clavito que te entró en el medio de la lastimadura. Hay dos miedos: el miedo a algo, y el miedo al miedo, ese que siempre llevas y que nunca vas a poder sacarte desde el momento en que empezó.”
Rodolfo Fogwill

“hay dos miedos: el miedo a algo, y el miedo al miedo, ese que siempre llevas y que nunca vas a poder sacarte desde el momen­to en que empezó.”
Rodolfo Enrique Fogwill, Los pichiciegos

“Quedaban en el suelo los cuerpos, las ropas deshechas, algunos quemados y todos con el guante derecho crispado alrededor del papelito con el contrato de rendición, como si fuera entrada intransferible para el gran teatro de los muertos.”
Rodolfo Fogwill
