“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

“La Fantasía es una actividad connatural al hombre. Claro está que ni destruye ni ofende a la Razón. Y tampoco inhibe nuestra búsqueda ni empaña nuestra percepción de las verdades científicas. Al contrario. Cuanto más aguda y más clara sea la razón, más cerca se encontrará de la Fantasía. Si el hombre llegara a hallarse alguna vez en un estado tal que le impidiese o le privase de la voluntad de conocer o percibir la verdad (hechos o evidencias), la Fantasía languidecería hasta que la humanidad sanase.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien

“Salta, y deja que te crezcan alas en el camino hacia abajo.”

“My roots go down to the depths of the world, through earth dry with brick, and damp earth, through veins of lead and silver. I am all fibre. All tremors shake me, and the weight of the earth is pressed to my ribs.”

“Let us go then, you and I,
When the evening is spread out against the sky
Like a patient etherised upon a table;
Let us go, through certain half-deserted streets,
The muttering retreats 5
Of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels
And sawdust restaurants with oyster-shells:
Streets that follow like a tedious argument
Of insidious intent
To lead you to an overwhelming question … 10
Oh, do not ask, “What is it?”
Let us go and make our visit.

In the room the women come and go
Talking of Michelangelo.”
― T.S. Eliot
