Jess Kidd
“Words are capable of flying. They dart through windows, over fences, between bar stools and across courtyards. They travel rapidly from mouth to ear, from ear to mouth. And as they go, they pick up speed and weight and substance and gravity. Until they land with a scud, take seed and grow as fast as the unruliest of beanstalks.”
Jess Kidd, Himself

Carlos Fuentes
“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.”
Carlos Fuentes, The Old Gringo

Gabriel García Márquez
“He was healthier than the rest of us, but when you listened with the stethoscope you could hear the tears bubbling inside his heart.”
Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez, Chronicle of a Death Foretold

Pascal Mercier
“We leave something of ourselves behind when we leave a place, we stay there, even though we go away. And there are things in us that we can find again only by going back there.”
Pascal Mercier, Night Train to Lisbon

José Saramago
“..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.”
جوزيه ساراماجو, Claraboia
