Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“When he is stripped of the Christian tunic and the classical toga, there is nothing left of the European but a pale-skinned barbarian.”
Nicolás Gómez Dávila

Thomas Mann
“No, when it came to the ultimate and highest questions, there was no help from outside - no mediation, no absolution, no soothing consolation. Every man had to untangle the riddle on his own, had to work diligently at it, at hot speed, all by himself; before it was too late, he must either achieve some clear readiness for death, or die in despair.”
Thomas Mann

Joyce Carol Oates
“Without anyone to talk to, a person is not quite real. Sounds are very important - we are like bats tapping at each other with sounds, making sure there is someone there, groping along. Sounds. Syllables. The beat of music. It is all a curious flowing, which you can hear only when you are silent yourself.”
Joyce Carol Oates, The Goddess and Other Women

Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“Progress ages badly.
Each generation brings a new model of progressivism which discards with contempt the previous model.
Nothing is more grotesque than yesterday’s progressive.”
Nicolás Gómez Dávila, Escolios a una texto implícito: Selección

Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“Civilizations are the summer noise of insects between two winters.”
Nicolás Gómez Dávila, Escolios a una texto implícito: Selección
