Carlos Ruiz Zafón
“Una vez busqué en un diccionario el término "hipocondríaco" y le
saqué una copia.
-No sé si lo sabías, pero tu biografía viene en el Diccionario de la Real
Academia le anuncié.
Echó un vistazo a la fotocopia y me lanzó una mirada de alcayata.
-Prueba a buscar en la "i" de idiota y verás que no soy el único
famoso replicó JF.”
― Carlos Ruiz Zafón, Marina

Fabio Stassi
“A uno scrittore che ti racconta la sua vita non bisogna mai dare credito perché se è un vero scrittore rinnoverà a ogni rigo, fino alla fine dei suoi giorni, il patto di infedeltà con la realtà che ha stipulato all’inizio della sua carriera. Per un romanziere, la sua stessa autobiografia non sarà che un’altra occasione per inventare. Quello che conta, per lui, è solo il senso di fondo. Tutti gli scrittori sanno bene che per arrivare a farsi un’idea della verità devono attraversare un mare di bugie. È il loro paradosso.”
― Fabio Stassi, La lettrice scomparsa
