Michel Houellebecq
“I think," he mumbled eventually, "I think that in order to solve the problem it is important to define it and to have some sense of what has caused it." Another empty phrase, thought Jean-Yves furiously; not only empty, but, as it happened, untrue. The causes were clearly part of general shifts in society that were beyond their powers to change. They had to adapt to this new business climate, that was all. And how could they adapt to it? This moron clearly hadn't the faintest idea.”
Michel Houellebecq, Platform

“No creo en el Apocalipsis, pero ya casi no veo pájaros. Se habrán hecho ceniza. No creo en el Apocalipsis, pero la Tierra terminará de mala manera: crecerá el Sol moribundo hasta alcanzarla. Hipertrofiado, más luminoso que nunca, devorará uno a uno los planetas. Quizá se adelantó y está pasando.”
Elisa Díaz Castelo, Principia

Jonathan Rosenbaum
“To write criticism that places itself beyond verification or challenge is to define criticism as an art, not a science, and to define that art in terms of art rather than scientifically. Exercised on its own terms, without reference to business or scholarship, such a practice defies the use of pull-quotes and advertising blurbs as much as term papers and dissertations; it usually becomes impossible, in fact, to appropiate or adapt it for any purpose other than its own. Refusing to reach for final conclusions about anything⁠—the ultimate aim of marketplace and university criticism alike⁠—it can only revel and luxuriate in its own activity, hoping at best merely to keep up with rather than master the art that it engages.”
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Placing Movies: The Practice of Film Criticism

“Y la ridícula tristeza,
como si el planeta hubiera de hecho desaparecido,
erosionado, hundido en su apogeo de sombra,
cerrado sobre sí mismo
como un camino que ya nadie recorre.”
Elisa Díaz Castelo, Principia

Sylvia Plath
“(...) He pipes a world of snakes,
Of sways and coilings, from the snake-rooted bottom
Of his mind. (...)”
Sylvia Plath, The Colossus and Other Poems
