Oscar Wilde
“When one is in love, one always begins by deceiving one's self, and one always ends by deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance.”
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Albert Camus
“Should I kill myself, or have a cup of coffee? But in the end one needs more courage to live than to kill himself.”
Albert Camus, A Happy Death

Sylvia Plath
“With me, the present is forever and forever is always shifting, flowing, melting. This second is life. And when it is gone it is dead. But you can’t start over with each new second. You have to judge by what is dead. It’s like quicksand…hopeless from the start. A story, a picture, can renew sensation a little, but not enough, not enough. Nothing is real except the present, and already, I feel the weight of centuries smothering me. Some girl a hundred years ago lived as I do. And she is dead. I am the present, but I know I, too, will pass. The high moment, the burning flash, come and are gone, continuous quicksand. And I don’t want to die.”
Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

Gloria Fuertes
“Tengo miedo de creer que el amor
es tan sólo un poema inventado por mí.”
Gloria Fuertes, El libro de Gloria Fuertes: Antología de poemas y vida

Hermann Hesse
“Words do not express thoughts very well. They always become a little different immediately after they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish.”
Hermann Hesse
