“Rocks and humans are not so different; we are also acted upon by time. My face is its own geologic map with creases, wrinkles and eyelids pulled down by gravity, weathered by wind, marked by the sun, and rounded by time.”

“Patricia and Carla look like they're sleeping. I can't see the whites of their eyes. We look like a matchbox. Sticks on top of each other. A human cake. I'm the cherry on top, the smallest one riding on the carpet. I'm Aladdin. I finally made it through the desert.”
― Javier Zamora, Solito

“Then everyone in The Six says the same thing: "¡Faaaak!" We scream from the pits of our bellies. Up our throats. Out of our wide-open mouths. We can't stop laughing. I still don't know what it means. First, I hoped the cars would stop. Now, a part of me hopes they keep driving so we keep yelling: "¡FAAAAKKKK!”
