Book cover for I'm Thinking of Ending Things
I think a lot of what we learn about others isn’t what they tell us. It’s what we observe. People can tell us anything they want.

Fernando Molano Vargas
“¿Qué podemos decir que sea cierto, de la poesía? Pues que ahí está. En el acorde de dos notas que hechizan e impiden escuchar el resto de la música, en la imprecisa tensión de dos colores que se tocan, en la línea que contornea una forma, acariciándola; en la sencilla frase leída que captura algo de nosotros, por un instante nos ata y nos deja como cualquier amante; y también en la ternura del sol que cae como un gigante cansado en los ocasos, en la magnificencia de una abeja sobre un pétalo, en la caricia del agua cayendo sobre la piel de un cuerpo amado, en la opacidad de la vieja tetera de la abuela, en el aroma de nuestras vidas depositado en los armarios; o en el leve giro de una mirada que embruja y nos deja a punto de caer en el amor; y en todas las cosas que en amor o en dolor, amargura o gozo, vienen a nosotros tocadas por el encanto de lo que simplemente es bello: la poesía está”
Fernando Molano Vargas, Vista desde una acera

Albert Camus
“In this respect, our townsfolk were like everybody else, wrapped up in themselves; in other words, they were humanists: they disbelieved in pestilences. A pestilence isn't a thing made to man's measure; therefore we tell ourselves that pestilence is a mere bogy of the mind, a bad dream that will pass away. But it doesn't always pass away and, from one bad dream to another, it is men who pass away, and the humanists first of all, because they have taken no precautions.”
Albert Camus, The Plague

George Eliot
“We could never have loved the earth so well if we had had no childhood in it, if it were not the earth where the same flowers come up again every spring that we used to gather with our tiny fingers as we sat lisping to ourselves on the grass, the same hips and haws on the autumn hedgerows, the same redbreasts that we used to call ‘God’s birds’ because they did no harm to the precious crops. What novelty is worth that sweet monotony where everything is known and loved because it is known?”
George Eliot, The Mill on the Floss

Zora Neale Hurston
“Two things everybody's got tuh do fuh theyselves. They got tuh go tuh God, and they got tuh find out about livin' fuh theyselves.”
Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God

Zora Neale Hurston
“It is so easy to be hopeful in the daytime when you can see the things you wish on. But it was night, it stayed night. Night was striding across nothingness with the whole round world in his hands . . . They sat in company with the others in other shanties, their eyes straining against cruel walls and their souls asking if He meant to measure their puny might against His. They seemed to be staring at the dark, but their eyes were watching God.”
Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God
