“Words! Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, and vivid, and cruel! One could not escape from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them! They seemed to be able to give a plastic form to formless things, and to have a music of their own as sweet as that of viol or of lute. Mere words! Was there anything so real as words?”
― The Picture of Dorian Gray

“Estamos muriendo cada día; lo que pasa es que lo olvidamos. Si no lo hiciéramos, no podríamos vivir. El olvido es un mecanismo de defensa, un velo que empleamos para cubrir lo que nos duele”

--Religion?
-The fashionable substitute for Belief.
--You are a sceptic.
-Never! Scepticism is the beginning of Faith.
--What are you?
-To define is to limit.”

Ese furor, por raro que pueda parecer, podría llamarse orgullo: orgullo de clamar que, pese a todo, hacíamos bien en beber y teníamos razón al equivocarnos. Persistir en el error o en el alcohol adquiere entonces, categoría de argumento, de desafío a la lógica”
