Haruki Murakami
“How many Sundays – how many hundreds of Sundays like this – lay ahead of me? “Quiet, peaceful and lonely,” I said aloud to myself. On Sundays I didn't wind my spring.”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

Dulce María Loynaz
“Si me quieres, quiéreme entera,

no por zonas de luz y sombra…

Si me quieres, quiéreme negra

y blanca. Y gris, y verde y rubia,

y morena…

Quiéreme día,

quiéreme noche…

¡Y madrugada en la ventana abierta!…

Si me quieres, no me recortes:

¡Quiéreme toda… O no me quieras!”
Dulce María Loynaz

E.E. Cummings
“en algún lugar al que nunca he viajado, gozosamente más allá
de cualquier experiencia, tus ojos tienen su silencio:
en tu gesto más frágil hay cosas que me abarcan,
o que no puedo tocar porque están demasiado cerca

tu mirada más leve me abrirá fácilmente
aunque me haya cerrado como dedos,
siempre me abres pétalo tras pétalo como la Primavera abre
(tocando hábilmente, misteriosamente) su primera rosa

o si tu deseo fuera cerrarme, yo y
mi vida nos cerraremos muy bellamente, súbitamente,
como cuando el corazón de esta flor imagina
la nieve cayendo cuidadosa por doquier;

nada que hayamos de percibir en este mundo iguala
la fuerza de tu intensa fragilidad: cuya textura
me domina con el color de sus campos,
trayendo muerte y eternidad con cada respiro

(yo no sé qué hay en ti que puede cerrar
y abrir; apenas algo en mí comprende
que la voz de tus ojos es más profunda que todas las rosas)
nadie, ni siquiera la lluvia, tiene manos tan pequeñas”
E.E. Cummings

Emil M. Cioran
“It is not worth the bother of killing yourself, since you always kill yourself too late.”
Emil Cioran, The Trouble With Being Born

Charles Bukowski
“I've never been lonely. I've been in a room -- I've felt suicidal. I've been depressed. I've felt awful -- awful beyond all -- but I never felt that one other person could enter that room and cure what was bothering me...or that any number of people could enter that room. In other words, loneliness is something I've never been bothered with because I've always had this terrible itch for solitude. It's being at a party, or at a stadium full of people cheering for something, that I might feel loneliness. I'll quote Ibsen, "The strongest men are the most alone." I've never thought, "Well, some beautiful blonde will come in here and give me a fuck-job, rub my balls, and I'll feel good." No, that won't help. You know the typical crowd, "Wow, it's Friday night, what are you going to do? Just sit there?" Well, yeah. Because there's nothing out there. It's stupidity. Stupid people mingling with stupid people. Let them stupidify themselves. I've never been bothered with the need to rush out into the night. I hid in bars, because I didn't want to hide in factories. That's all. Sorry for all the millions, but I've never been lonely. I like myself. I'm the best form of entertainment I have. Let's drink more wine!”
Charles Bukowski
