“El día de ayer era el círculo sin fin, mi fijación definitiva en su proceso de recordación giratoria; el año de 1920 era la superficie plana y vasta por donde poder siempre correr, siempre escabullirse de cualquier pensamiento demasiado obstinado, de cualquier cadena de ellos demasiado insistente.”
― Juan Emar, Yesterday

“Płótna Rubena de Loi zawierały w sobie wszystkie zielenie. Zielenie ze wszystkich godzin dnia i nocy, wszystkich lat historii. Te, które Ziemia zostawiła za sobą po drodze, te, które towarzyszą jej do dzisiaj, te, które przylgną do niej w jej przyszłych obrotach. Zielenie wszystkich czterech żywiołów. Zielenie eteru. Zielenie życia poczynającego się w jajeczku, zielenie narodzin, rozkwitu i pełni, zielenie ciała toczonego przez robactwo w trumnach. Zielenie ciszy, szeptu, wrzasku. Boga. Szatana. Wszystkie, wszystkie! Po co wyliczać dalej? Gdybym miał to zrobić, zapisałbym dziesięć tomów, a potem, jeśli chciałbym wyliczyć związek każdej zieleni z każdą kolejną, nie wystarczyłoby i sto tomów. Poza tym czyż nie wystarczy słowo "wszystkie"?”

“Quedé más de veinte minutos inmóvil en mi esquina sin comprender, o más bien comprendiendo como absurdo, estos rodajes de destinos, estos hilos culebreantes que se enredan, se entretejen y no se tocan nunca, perdiéndose cada cual en un mundo de ignorancia, codo a codo, en un mundo de no saber.”
― Juan Emar, Un año
