“Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.
That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore.
They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?”

“La candente mañana de febrero en que Beatriz Viterbo murió, después de una imperiosa agonía
que no se rebajó un solo instante ni al sentimentalismo ni al miedo, noté que las carteleras de
fierro de la Plaza Constitución habían renovado no sé qué aviso de cigarrillos rubios; el hecho
me dolió, pues comprendí que el incesante y vasto universo ya se apartaba de ella y que ese
cambio era el primero de una serie infinita.”
