Merlin Franco
“A spade is a spade and diplomacy can’t turn it into a fork overnight.”
Merlin Franco, A Dowryless Wedding

Joseph Conrad
“And yet is not mankind itself, pushing on its blind way, driven by a dream of its greatness and its power upon the dark paths of excessive cruelty and of excessive devotion. And what is the pursuit of truth, after all?”
Joseph Conrad, Lord Jim

Mitch Albom
“But fates are connected in ways we don’t understand.”
Mitch Albom, The Time Keeper

T. Rafael Cimino
“It’s not how much money you make. It’s how much you keep.”
T. Rafael Cimino, Table 21

Betty Mahmoody
“Sé que mi familia es así pero este silencio me pesa. Tengo la impresión de tener millones de cosas que decir que, en el fondo, no interesan a nadie. Me viene a la memoria lo que decían los supervivientes de los campos de la última guerra al volver a su hogar: las pesadillas no se cuentan. Los demás no imaginan este género de pesadillas. Se instala, entre ellos y nosotras, una especie de statu quo que parece decir: ‘Estás aquí, se acabó, no hablemos más de ello.”
Betty Mahmoody, For the Love of a Child
