Cristina Peri Rossi
“We have all been exiled from something or someone. I think this is a human condition”
Cristina Peri Rossi, The Ship of Fools

Jonathan Coe
“Just as the hero of a play... - be it Oedipus or Hamlet or Arturo Ui - was often an archetype, standing for individual consciousness of every human being, so the double act could be seen as the simplest representation of an entire society... Look at Vladimir and Estragon, ... look at Laurel and Hardy; even look at Morecambe and Wise - and you see a pared-down image of a more-or-less functioning society. Human beings doing their best to get along together; unable to hide their impatience, sometimes, with the recalcitrant behaviour of their fellow earth-dwellers, but each unable to do without the other.”
Jonathan Coe, The Proof of My Innocence

Cristina Peri Rossi
“there are journeys from which one cannot return”
Cristina Peri Rossi, The Ship of Fools

Mircea Cărtărescu
“Why should I be saved, in particular, of all the people on the planet? What is precious in me, what fruit could be picked, and who could do it, from the seed of light that is my consciousness?”
Mircea Cărtărescu, Solenoid

Cristina Peri Rossi
“We know nothing about those we love, except our need of their presence”
Cristina Peri Rossi, The Ship of Fools
