“Nos batimos sin necesidad de creernos invencibles, prescindiendo del miedo. Colisionamos como dos trenes a gran velocidad mientras todo se vuelve silencioso alrededor cuando en realidad hay tantos ruidos, gritos, vibraciones, una bendita estampida, la danza de la guerra que parece acordada, ensayada por un puñado de hombres sin más experiencia que la sangre, con las almas hechas pedazos, un paso más y otro, no hay bala que me derribe, ni bayoneta que se clave dentro de mí, no hay hombre visible que venga en mi dirección, que persista hasta darme muerte, dañarme como el niño que arranca las alas de la mariposa por placer y que, al descubrir el lado oscuro que habita en su interior, no puede más que insistir, convencerse de que ser cruel es de lo más sencillo y natural entre los seres hijos de Dios.”

Yōko Ogawa
“The meaning isn’t important. What matters is the story hidden deep in the words. You’re at the point now where you’re trying to extract that story. Your soul is trying to bring back the things it lost in the disappearances.”

Charles Martin, The Mountain Between Us

Marlen Haushofer, The Wall

Charles Martin
“I stood and pulled her up on two feet. “That depends.” “On what?” “Whether you’re looking at this through my eyes or yours.”
Charles Martin, The Mountain Between Us
