“You'll see why a person would want to live there forever. Dawn, morning, mid-day, night: all the same, except for the changes in the air. The air changes the color of things there. And life whirs by as quiet as a murmur...the pure murmuring of life.”
― Juan Rulfo

“«Los caracteres suelen ir evolucionando, y cada pocos años nuestros cuerpos experimentan una remodelación completa; tanto si es deseable como si no lo es, nada más natural que el que cambiemos.» Desayuno en Tiffany's.”
― Truman Capote, Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Three Stories

“Fue así que me enloquecí.

Y en mi locura he hallado libertad y seguridad; la libertad de la soledad y la seguridad de no ser comprendido, pues quienes nos comprenden esclavizan una parte de nuestro ser.”
― Khalil Gibran, El Loco: Sus Parabolas y Poemas

“The psychohistoric trend of a planet-full of people contains a huge inertia. To be changed it must be met with something possessing a similar inertia. Either as many people must be concerned, or if the number of people be relatively small, enormous time for change must be allowed.”
― Isaac Asimov, Foundation
