“His feet are light and nimble. He never sleeps. He says that he will never die. He dances in light and in shadow and he is a great favorite. He never sleeps, the judge. He is dancing, dancing. He says that he will never die.”
― Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian, or, the Evening Redness in the West

“El mundo se cae a pedazos y casi siempre todo se va a la mierda y casi siempre dañamos a las personas que queremos o ellas nos dañan a nosotros irremediablemente y no parece haber motivos para albergar ninguna clase de esperanza, pero al menos esta historia termina bien, termina aquí, con la escena de estos dos poetas chilenos que se miran a los ojos y que lanzan risotadas y que por ningún motivo quieren irse de ese bar, así que piden otra ronda de cerveza.”
― Alejandro Zambra, Poeta chileno

“Now - it has a funny sound to be a whole world and your life.”
― Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls

“Beyond thought I reach a state. I refuse to divide it up into words - and what I cannot and do not want to express ends up being the most secret of my secrets. I know that I'm scared of the moments in which I don't use thought and that's a momentary state that is difficult to reach, and which, entirely secret, no longer uses words with which thoughts are produce. Is not using words to lose your identity? is it getting lost in the harmful essential shadows?”
― Clarice Lispector
