Amélie Nothomb
“That was what university was: thinking you were going to open yourself up to a universe, and meeting nobody.”
Amélie Nothomb, Antichrista

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“I couldn’t forgive him or like him, but I saw that what he had done was, to him, entirely justified. It was all very careless and confused. They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

Jorge Luis Borges
“Si para todo hay término y hay tasa
y última vez y nunca más y olvido
¿quién nos dirá de quién en esta casa,
sin saberlo, nos hemos despedido?”
Jorge Luis Borges, El otro, el mismo/Para las seis cuerdas/Elogio de la sombra

Amélie Nothomb
“I had always been alone and wouldn't have minded if it had been a matter of choice. It never had been. I dreamed of being integrated, if only to give myself the luxury of subsequently disintegrating.”
Amélie Nothomb, Antichrista

Italo Calvino
“The inferno of the living is not something that will be; if there is one, it is what is already here, the inferno where we live every day, that we form by being together. There are two ways to escape suffering it. The first is easy for many: accept the inferno and become such a part of it that you can no longer see it. The second is risky and demands constant vigilance and apprehension: seek and learn to recognize who and what, in the midst of inferno, are not inferno, then make them endure, give them space.”
Italo Calvino, Invisible Cities
