“—Los libros son espejos: sólo se ve en ellos lo que uno ya lleva dentro”
― Carlos Ruiz Zafón, La sombra del viento

“It is impossible to survive in a prolonged state of reality.”
― Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Angel's Game

“Only three or four things are worth living for; the rest is shit.”
― Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind

“Nothing feeds forgetfulness better than war.... We all keep quiet and they try to convince us that what we've seen, what we've done, what we've learned about ourselves and about others, is an illusion, a passing nightmare. Wars have no memory, and nobody has the courage to understand them until there are no voices left to tell what happened, until the moment comes when we no longer recognize them and they return, with another face and another name, to devour what they left behind.”
― Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind
