“Detestamos a los cazadores
y más a los disecadores
—peor que quitar la vida
es conservar la muerte—.”
― Gloria Fuertes, El libro de Gloria Fuertes: Antología de poemas y vida

“Me dijeron:

— O te subes al carro

o tendrás que empujarlo.

Ni me subí ni lo empujé.

Me senté en la cuneta

y alrededor de mí,

a su debido tiempo,

brotaron las amapolas.”
― Gloria Fuertes, Mujer de verso en pecho

“Why won’t you leave me alone?” I whispered one night as he hovered behind me while I tried to work at my desk.

Long minutes passed. I didn’t think he would answer. I even had time to hope he might have gone, until I felt his hand on my shoulder.

“Then I’d be alone, too," he said, and he stayed the whole night through, till the lamps burned down to nothing.”
― Leigh Bardugo, Siege and Storm

“Cuidado con las mariposas, sus alas despiertan huracanes…”
― Mara Oliver, Deus Ex Machina 2.0
