    Benito Taibo
    “La gente le tiene muchísimo más miedo a las palabras que a los cañones. Las palabras han hecho revoluciones, puentes, caminos. Han logrado que la gente se enamore o se odie para siempre. Hay palabras grandes como monocotiledónea o gatroenterólogo y pequeñitas pero poderosas como paz. Importantes como justicia, imprescindibles como vida, valiosas como sueño, muy poco significativas como dinero... Lo importante es cómo se usan y qué se quiere decir cuando se usan.”
    Benito Taibo, Persona normal

    Mario Benedetti
    “Mi táctica es
    mirarte
    aprender como sos
    quererte como sos

    mi táctica es
    hablarte
    y escucharte
    construir con palabras
    un puente indestructible

    mi táctica es
    quedarme en tu recuerdo
    no sé cómo ni sé
    con qué pretexto
    pero quedarme en vos

    mi táctica es
    ser franco
    y saber que sos franca
    y que no nos vendamos
    simulacros
    para que entre los dos

    no haya telón
    ni abismos

    mi estrategia es
    en cambio
    más profunda y más
    simple
    mi estrategia es
    que un día cualquiera
    no sé cómo ni sé
    con qué pretexto
    por fin me necesites”
    Mario Benedetti Táctica y estrategia

    Virginia Woolf

    Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
    “Even broken in spirit as he is, no one can feel more deeply than he does the beauties of nature. The starry sky, the sea, and every sight afforded by these wonderful regions, seems still to have the power of elevating his soul from earth. Such a man has a double existence: he may suffer misery, and be overwhelmed by disappointments; yet, when he has retired into himself, he will be like a celestial spirit that has a halo around him, within whose circle no grief or folly ventures.”
    Mary Shelley, Frankenstein

  • #6
    Gabriel García Márquez
    “He was still too young to know that the heart's memory eliminates the bad and magnifies the good, and that thanks to this artifice we manage to endure the burden of the past. But when he stood at the railing of the ship... only then did he understand to what extent he had been an easy vicitim to the charitible deceptions of nostalgia. ”
    Gabriel Garcia Marquez

  • #7
    Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

    Rainbow Rowell, Eleanor & Park

  • #9
    Virginia Woolf
    “I can only note that the past is beautiful because one never realises an emotion at the time. It expands later, and thus we don't have complete emotions about the present, only about the past.”
    Virginia Woolf

    Virginia Woolf
    “There was a star riding through clouds one night, & I said to the star, 'Consume me'.”
    Virginia Woolf, The Waves

  • #11
    Gabriel García Márquez
    “It had to be a mad dream, one that would give her the courage she would need to discard the prejudices of a class that had not always been hers but had become hers more than anyone’s. It had to teach her to think of love as a state of grace: not the means to anything but the alpha and omega, an end in itself.”
    Gabriel Garcia Marquez , Love in the Time of Cholera

  • #12
    Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
    “No man chooses evil because it is evil; he only mistakes it for happiness, the good he seeks.”
    Mary Shelley

  • #13
    Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
    “How dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to be greater than his nature will allow.”
    Mary Shelley, Frankenstein

    Rainbow Rowell
    “I don't like you, Park," she said, sounding for a second like she actually meant it. "I..." - her voice nearly disappeared - "think I live for you."
    He closed his eyes and pressed his head back into his pillow.
    "I don't think I even breathe when we're not together," she whispered. "Which means, when I see you on Monday morning, it's been like sixty hours since I've taken a breath. That's probably why I'm so crabby, and why I snap at you. All I do when we're apart is think about you, and all I do when we're together is panic. Because every second feels so important. And because I'm so out of control, I can't help myself. I'm not even mine anymore, I'm yours, and what if you decide that you don't want me? How could you want me like I want you?"
    He was quiet. He wanted everything she'd just said to be the last thing he heard. He wanted to fall asleep with 'I want you' in his ears.”
    Rainbow Rowell, Eleanor & Park

    Rainbow Rowell
    “I miss you."
    "That's stupid," she said. "I saw you this morning."
    "It's not the time," Levi said, and she could hear that he was smiling." It's the distance.”
    Rainbow Rowell, Fangirl

    Mario Benedetti
    “Ella me daba la mano y no hacía falta más. Me alcanzaba para sentir que era bien acogido. Más que besarla, más que acostarnos juntos, más que ninguna otra cosa, ella me daba la mano y eso era amor.”
    Mario Benedetti, La tregua

    “Posiblemente me quisiera, vaya uno a saberlo, pero lo cierto es que tenía una habilidad especial para herirme”
    Mario Benedetti, La tregua

  • #21
    Mario Benedetti
    “Lo qué uno quiere de verdad, es lo que está hecho para uno; entonces hay que tomarlo, o intentar: En eso se te puede ir la Vida, pero es una vida mucho mejor…”
    Mario Benedetti, La tregua

    Mario Benedetti
    “Lo perdido tuvo color pero ahora es incoloro. Los latidos del gastado corazón invaden nuestra noche, pero el insomnio actual tiene otra partitura. Lo perdido es también un par o dos de labios que probaron el sabor de los míos, y que ahora tan sólo puedo besar en mi memoria.”
    mario benedetti

By four I'll be excited and worried; I'll discover what it costs to be happy! But if you come at any od time, I'll never know when I should prepare my heart... There must be rites.”

    “Busco amigos. ¿Qué significa "domesticar"? —volvió a preguntar el principito. —Es una cosa ya olvidada —dijo el zorro—, significa "crear vínculos... " — ¿Crear vínculos? —Efectivamente, verás —dijo el zorro—. Tú no eres para mí todavía más que un muchachito igual a otros cien mil muchachitos y no te necesito para nada. Tampoco tú tienes necesidad de mí y no soy para ti más que un zorro entre otros cien mil zorros semejantes. Pero si tú me domésticas, entonces tendremos necesidad el uno del otro. Tú serás para mí único en el mundo, yo seré para ti único en el mundo... —Comienzo a comprender —dijo el principito—. Hay una flor... creo que ella me ha domesticado...”
    Antoine de Saint Exupery, El Principito

    Benito Taibo
    “El libro es jardín que se puede llevar en el bolsillo, nave espacial que viaja en la mochila, arma para enfrentar las mejores batallas y afrentar a los peores enemigos, semilla de libertad, pañuelo para las lágrimas. El libro es cama mullida y cama de clavos, el libro te obliga a pensar, a sonreír, a llorar, a enojarte ante lo injusto y aplaudir la venganza de los justos. El libro es comida, techo, asiento, ropa que me arropa, boca que besa mi boca. Lugar que contiene el universo.”
    Benito Taibo, Persona normal
