“Las personas tal vez consistimos, en suma, tanto en lo que somos como en lo que hemos sido, tanto en lo comprobable y cuantificable y recordable como en lo más incierto, indeciso y difuminado, quizá estamos hechos en igual medida de lo que fue y de lo que pudo ser.”

“From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered-
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs’d they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.”
― Henry V

“O, here
Will I set up my everlasting rest,
And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars
From this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last!
Arms, take your last embrace! and, lips, O you
The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss
A dateless bargain to engrossing death!”
― Romeo and Juliet

“En mí persiste la sensación de que esta es una situación provisoria, circunstancial. Siento que algo está por suceder, que algo tiene que pasar. Y de pronto comprendo: lloro y nada pasa. Leo y nada pasa. Escribo y nada pasa.
No, eso que espero no va a pasar.”
