    William Shakespeare
    “These violent delights have violent ends
    And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
    Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey
    Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
    And in the taste confounds the appetite.
    Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
    Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”
    ― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

    “Cada uno entra en la muerte de un modo que se le parece. Algunos, en silencio, caminando en puntillas; otros, reculando; otros, pidiendo perdón o permiso. Hay quien entra discutiendo o exigiendo explicaciones y hay quien se abre paso en ella a las trompadas y puteando. Hay quien la abraza.”

    Juan Rulfo
    “El día que te fuiste entendí que no te volvería a ver. Ibas teñida de rojo por el sol de la tarde, por el crepúsculo ensangrentado del cielo; Sonreías. Dejabas atrás un pueblo del que muchas veces me dijiste: ‘Lo quiero por ti; pero lo odio por todo lo demás, hasta por haber nacido en él’. Pensé: ‘No regresará jamás; no volverá nunca.”

    Juan Rulfo
    “There you'll find the place I love most in the world. The place where I grew thin from dreaming. My village, rising from the plain. Shaded with trees and leaves like a piggy bank filled with memories. You'll see why a person would want to live there forever. Dawn, morning, mid-day, night: all the same, except for the changes in the air. The air changes the color of things there. And life whirs by as quiet as a murmur...the pure murmuring of life.”

    Kamand Kojouri
    “I have drunk the night
    and swallowed the stars.
    I am dancing with abandon
    and singing with rapture.
    There is not a thing I do not love.
    There is not a person I have not forgiven.
    I feel a universe of love.
    I feel a universe of light.
    Tonight, I am with old friends
    and we are returning home.
    The moon is our witness.”
