“And there's nothing wrong with being a lizard either. Unless you were born to be a hawk.”
― Leigh Bardugo, Shadow and Bone

“I missed you every hour. And you know what the worst part was? It caught me completely by surprise. I'd catch myself just walking around to find you, not for any reason, just out of habit, because I'd seen something that I wanted to tell you about or because I wanted to hear your voice. And then I'd realize that you weren't there anymore, and every time, every single time, it was like having the wind knocked out of me. I've risked my life for you. I've walked half the length of Ravka for you, and I'd do it again and again and again just to be with you, just to starve with you and freeze with you and hear you complain about hard cheese every day. So don't tell me why we don't belong together," he said fiercely.”
― Leigh Bardugo, Shadow and Bone

“PROVERBIOS Y CANTARES

XXVI

Poned sobre los campos
un carbonero, un sabio y un poeta.
Veréis cómo el poeta admira y calla,
el sabio mira y piensa...
Seguramente, el carbonero busca
las moras o las setas.
LlevadIos al teatro
y sólo el carbonero no bosteza.
Quien prefiere lo vivo a lo pintado
es el hombre que piensa, canta o sueña.
El carbonero tiene
llena de fantasías la cabeza.”
― Antonio Machado, Campos de Castilla

“¿Qué es la vida? Una ilusión,
una sombra, una ficción,
y el mayor bien es pequeño:
que toda la vida es sueño,
y los sueños, sueños son.”
― Pedro Calderón de la Barca, La vida es sueño
