“If I read a book and it makes my whole body so cold no fire can ever warm me, I know that is poetry.”

“How Could I Have Doubted
I stopped looking for you
I stopped waiting for you
I stopped dying for you
and I started dying for myself
I aged rapidly
I became fat in the face
and soft in the gut
and I forgot that I’d ever loved you
I was old
I had no focus, no mission
I wandered around eating and buying
bigger and bigger clothes
and I forgot why I hated
every long moment that was mine to fill
Why did you come back to me tonight
I can’t even get off this chair
Tears run down my cheeks
I am in love again
I can live like this”
― Book of Longing

“I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end.”

“Parece instintivamente que la felicidad está por venir. Que la palabra felicidad remite al futuro. Pero remite realmente a un pasado remoto, del que la extrapolamos al futuro remoto con un movimiento mecánico de autodefensa. Se ha dicho que la literatura de ciencia ficción está llena de añoranzas prehistóricas. Eso es. Sólo se puede soñar el pasado. El futuro es un pasado actuante. Un pasado que actúa como futuro. Confío en que seré feliz porque alguna vez lo fui. Y creo que alguna vez lo fui porque entonces, aquella vez, creía asimismo haberlo sido en otro tiempo. Todo instante de felicidad no es sino la confirmación de que tenemos un pasado. Sólo la memoria goza.”
