Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“Men have no more time to understand anything. They buy ready-made things in the shops. But since there are no shops where you can buy friends, men no longer have any friends.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Irvine Welsh
“...we need tits and arse because they have got to be available to us; to be pawed, fucked, wanked over. Because we’re men? No. Because we’re consumers. Because those are things we like, things we intrinsically feel or have been conned into believing will give us value, release satisfaction. We value them so we need to at least have the illusion of their availability. For tits and arse read coke, crisps, speedboats, cars, houses, computers, designer labels, replica shirts. That’s why advertising and pornography are similar; they sell the illusion of availability and the non-consequence of consumption.”
Irvine Welsh, Porno

Yvonne Korshak
“Pericles let a moment pass, then another. The Spartans needed time to set in balance the risks of accepting the offer and the joys of being rich. Not as much time as he’d expected, though.”
Yvonne Korshak, Pericles and Aspasia: A Story of Ancient Greece

Peter Benchley
“You're gonna need a bigger boat”
Peter Benchley

Muriel Barbery
“La facultad que tenemos de manipularnos a nosotros mismos para que no se tambaleen lo más mínimo los cimientos de nuestras creencias es un fenómeno fascinante.”
Muriel Barbery, La elegancia del erizo
