"“Catalina, I’ll speak to—” “Shush. They can hear you,” Catalina said and went quiet, her eyes bright as polished stones. “Who can hear me?” Noemí asked slowly, as her cousin’s eyes fixed on her, unblinking. Catalina slowly leaned closer to her, whispering in her ear. “It’s in the walls,” she said." May 26, 2026 01:33AM

"Solo lei si muoveva in sintonia con i propri pensieri. Sui volti tesi che la circondavano c'era la consapevolezza che la leggenda fosse rivolta a loro. La leggenda parlava di loro. Forse era la loro. Forse era un'allusione al rituale estivo. Si, la storia li eccitava. E allo stesso tempo erano inorriditi dall'eccitazione che la storia aveva suscitato in loro."

"«Finisce qui tra noi due, piccola?»
«Non lo so», gli disse facendo uno sforzo perché non le tremasse la voce. «Troppo presto per dirlo.»
«Se dovessi dire la mia», ribatté lui, «direi di sì. Oggi ha dimostrato due cose. Una è che una donna in buona salute può correre lontano.»
«Ti chiamo», disse lei.
«L'altra è che i bambini vivi per un matrimonio sono un collante. Quelli morti sono un acido.»"

Quentin Tarantino
“Foreign films, Cliff thought, were more like novels. They didn't care if you liked the main character or not. And Cliff found that intriguing.”
Quentin Tarantino, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

David Guymer
“Secrecy is our shield. It is how we defend lesser men from themselves.”
David Guymer, Lion El'Jonson: Lord of the First

Cormac McCarthy
“He said that while the huérfano might feel that he no longer belonged among men he must set this feeling aside for he contained within him a largeness of spirit which men could see and that men would wish to know him and that the world would need him even as he needed the world for they were one.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Crossing

Walter Tevis
“It's an entire world of just 64 squares. I feel safe in it. I can control it; I can dominate it. And it's predictable. So, if I get hurt, I only have myself to blame.”
Walter Tevis, The Queen's Gambit

Sutter Cane
“Do you read Sutter Cane ?”
Sutter Cane, In The Mouth of Madness
