“And the frontier in here?" the North American woman had asked, tapping her forehead. "And the frontier in hear?" General Arroyo had responded, touching his heart. "There's one frontier we only dare to cross at night," the old gringo said. "The frontier of our differences with others, of our battles with ourselves.”

“..عندما تكبر ستريد أن تكون سعيداً. أنت الآن لا تفكر في الأمر ولهذا بالذات أنت سعيد. عندما ستفكر، عندما تريد أن تكون سعيداً، ستكفّ عن البقاء سعيداً. إلى الأبد، ربّما إلى الأبد.. هل تسمعني؟ إلى الأبد. وكلّما كانت رغبتك في السعادة أقوى، ستكون أكثر تعاسة. السعادة ليست أمراً نكسبه. هم يقولون لك هذا. لا تصدقهم. إما أن يكون المرء سعيداً أو لا يكون.”

“A função do jornalismo nesta época, por exemplo, ou, pelo menos, nesta sociedade, não era informar, era escamotear toda e qualquer forma de discernimento entre a mentira e a verdade, substituir a realidade por uma ficção na qual se manifesta a massa oceânica de complexos, frustrações, invejas, ódios e traumas de um público corroídos pelo ressentimento e pela inveja. Mais uma prova de que os pequenos espaços de civilização nunca prevaleceriam sobre a incomensurável barbárie.”
