Luis Buñuel
“I also remember being struck by de Sade's will, in which he asked that his ashes be scattered to the four corners of the earth in the hope that humankind would forget both his writings and his name. I'd like to be able to make that demand; commemorative ceremonies are not only false but dangerous, as are all statues of famous men. Long live forgetfulness, I've always said—the only dignity I see is in oblivion.”
Luis Buñuel, My Last Sigh

Arturo Pérez-Reverte
“Es agradable ser feliz, pensó. Y saberlo mientras lo eres.”
Arturo Pérez-Reverte, El tango de la Guardia Vieja

Kinky Friedman
“My dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you.
Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness.
Let it kill you and let it devour your remains.
For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.
~ Falsely yours”
Kinky Friedman

Luis Buñuel
“La ciencia no me interesa. Me parece presuntuosa, analítica y superficial. Ignora el sueño, el azar, la risa, el sentimiento y la contradicción, cosas todas que me son preciosas.”
Luis Buñuel

Ernest Hemingway
“The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice. Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable; they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed.”
Ernest Hemingway
