Agustina Bazterrica
“Non capisco perché siamo attratti dal sorriso delle persone. Quando uno sorride, non fa altro che mostrare lo scheletro.”
Agustina Bazterrica, Tender Is the Flesh

Aldous Huxley
“But I like the inconveniences."
"We don't," said the Controller. "We prefer to do things comfortably."
"But I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want
freedom, I want goodness. I want sin."
"In fact," said Mustapha Mond, "you're claiming the right to be unhappy."
"All right then," said the Savage defiantly, "I'm claiming the nght to be unhappy."
"Not to mention the right to grow old and ugly and impotent; the right to have
syphilis and cancer; the right to have too little to eat; the right to be lousy; the right
to live in constant apprehension of what may happen to-morrow; the right to catch
typhoid; the right to be tortured by unspeakable pains of every kind." There was a
long silence.
"I claim them all," said the Savage at last.
Mustapha Mond shrugged his shoulders. "You're welcome," he said.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
