“Do you ever wonder at the strangeness of it? That our bodies have eyelids and lips, that they can at times be made to close from the outside, and at other times to lock fast from within.”
Han Kang, Greek Lessons

“¿Cómo hace la gente para entender el mundo si no tiene hermanas mayores?”
Powerpaola (Autor)

Carlos Fuentes
“Las risas redondas, abiertas, llegaron hasta su oído. Nunca la había escuchado reír así. Como si acabara de nacer, como si no hubiera atrás, siempre atrás,
lápidas de historia e historias, sacos de vergüenza, hechos cometidos por ella, por él.
Por todos. Ésa era la palabra intolerable. Cometidos por todos. La mueca agria no pudo contener esa palabra que le desbordaba. Que rompía todos los resortes del poder y la culpa, del dominio singular de otros, de alguien, de una muchacha en su poder,
comprada por él, para hacerlos ingresar a un mundo ancho de actos comunes, destinos similares, experiencias sin etiquetas de posesión. ¿Entonces esa mujer no había sido marcada para siempre? ¿No sería, para siempre, una mujer poseida ocasionalmente por
él? ¿No sería ésa su definición y su fatalidad: ser lo que fue porque en un momento dado fue suya? ¿Podía Lilia amar como si él nunca hubiese existido?”
Carlos Fuentes, La muerte de Artemio Cruz [The Death of Artemio Cruz]

“Later, someone told me that relationships have a best-before date. What he actually said was 賞味期限 shoumikigen, literally 'the limit of taste'. Technically still edible, but it won't taste good anymore. It won't be at its best. This is a good way to think about growing apart from people, failing to keep in touch, losing touch, letting them go. It made me feel a little better about the friends I had lost; it reminded me that the ones who are here outnumber those who aren't. Some relationships also have a 消費期限 shouhikigen, a real expiry date, the point which something is no longer usable and has to be thrown out.”
Florentyna Leow, How Kyoto Breaks Your Heart

Caitlin Rozakis
“But we don’t choose what life we get, we just do our best to make the most of it.”
Caitlin Rozakis, Dreadful
