“The ghosts were never the problem”
― Jonathan Sims, Thirteen Storeys

“Why did I not sink into forgetfulness and rest? Death snatches away many blooming children, the only hopes of their doating parents: how many brides and youthful lover have been one day in bloom of health and hope, and the next a prey for worms and the decay of the tomb! Of what materials was I made that I could thus resist so many shocks, which, like the turning of the wheel, continually renewed the torture?
But I was doomed to live.”
― Mary Shelley, Frankenstein; Or, The Modern Prometheus: Mary Shelley's 1831 Edition

“-¿Y la muerte?
[...]
-Para que una palabra sea dicha tiene que haber silencio. Antes y después.”
― Ursula K. Le Guin (Matilde Horne)

“I em pregunto si algú, un dia, seria prou boig per voler apagar els estels, fins que només en quedés un, trist i solitari puntet en una nit massa gran. I em pregunto si algú, un dia, seria prou boig per voler apagar les llengües, fins que només en quedés una.”
― Joan-Lluís Lluís, Balla amb Babel
