“Ele chorou um pouco. Era um belo homem, com barba por fazer e abatidíssimo. Via-se que havia fracassado. Como todos nós. Ele me perguntou se podia ler para mim um poema. Eu disse que queria ouvir. Ele abriu uma sacola, tirou de dentro um caderno grosso, pôs-se a rir, ao abrir as folhas. Então leu o poema. Era simplesmente uma beleza. Misturava palavrões com as maiores delicadezas. Oh Cláudio, tinha eu vontade de gritar – nós todos somos fracassados, nós todos vamos morrer um dia! Quem? mas quem pode dizer com sinceridade que se realizou na vida? O sucesso é uma mentira”

“thought as I walked of those who had gone before me. The pilgrimages to Compostela had brought together a cross section of human beings from all over Europe. You could say that the Camino had been the legacy of medieval Christianity attempting to unite, through faith and devotion, many aspects of society involved with art, religion, economics, and cultural pursuits. People from lowly stations and saints and royalty disregarded their social distinctions and national borders in order to worship and find the divine in themselves on the journey to Santiago de Compostela.”

“Desde que descobrira - mas descobrira realmente com um tom espantado - que ia morrer um dia, então não teve mais medo da vida, e, por causa da morte, dinha direitos totais: arriscava tudo.”
