Sándor Márai
“Friendship is no ideal state of mind; it is a law, and a strict one, on which the entire legal systems of great cultures were built. It reaches beyond personal desires and self-regard in men's hearts, its grip is greater than that of sexual desire, and it is proof against disappointment because it asks for nothing.”
Sándor Márai, Embers

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“Oh, you may be sure that Columbus was happy not when he had discovered America, but when he was discovering it. Take my word for it, the highest moment if his happiness was just three days before the discovery of the New World, when the mutinous crew were on the point of returning to Europe in despair. It wasn't the New World that mattered, even if it had fallen to pieces.
Columbus died almost without seeing it; and not really knowing what he had discovered. It's life that matters, nothing but life -- the process of discovering, the everlasting and perpetual process, not the discovery itself, at all.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Idiot

Sándor Márai
“Não basta amar alguém. É preciso amar com coragem. É peciso amar de tal modo que nenhum ladrão, ou má intenção, ou lei, lei divina ou deste mundo, possa seja o que for contra esse amor. Não nos amámos com coragem...foi esse o mal. E a culpa é tua, porque a coragem dos homens é ridícula em matéria de amor. É trabalho vosso, o amor...Só nisso sois grandes. Foi aí que falhaste, e, contigo, falhou tudo o que poderiam ter sido as nossas obrigações, os deveres e sentido da vida. Não é verdade que os homens sejam responsáveis pelo seu amor. Deveis ser vós a amar heroicamente.”
Sandor Marai

Gabriel García Márquez
“Ningún lugar en la vida es más triste que una cama vacía.”
Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez, El coronel no tiene quien le escriba
