Eduardo’s Quotes

“Have faith that you will be here, recognizable to yourself, again tomorrow.”
― Michael Cunningham, The Hours

“You see it in films sometimes, when one person's pointing a gun at another person, and the one with the gun's making the other one do all kinds of things. Then suddenly there's a mistake, a tussle, and the gun's with the second person. And the second person looks at the first person with a gleam, a kind of can't-believe-my-luck expression that promises all kinds of vengeance.”
― Kazuo Ishiguro, Never Let Me Go

“I was born here but I’ve never gotten used to it; Helsingborg and I will never find peace. Maybe everyone feels that way about their hometown: the place we’re from never apologizes, never admits that it was wrong about us. It just sits there, at the end of the motorway, whispering: “You might be all rich and powerful now. And maybe you do come home with expensive watches and fancy clothes. But you can’t fool me, because I know who you really are. You’re just a scared little boy.”
― Fredrik Backman, The Deal of a Lifetime

“Introverts, in contrast, may have strong social skills and enjoy parties and business meetings, but after a while wish they were home in their pajamas. They prefer to devote their social energies to close friends, colleagues, and family. They listen more than they talk, think before they speak, and often feel as if they express themselves better in writing than in conversation. They tend to dislike conflict. Many have a horror of small talk, but enjoy deep discussions.”
― Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

“Los hombres más opacos emiten algún resplandor: este asesino toca bien la flauta, ese contramaestre que desgarra a latigazos la espalda de los esclavos es quizá un buen hijo; ese idiota compartirá conmigo su último mendrugo. Y pocos hay que no puedan enseñarnos alguna cosa. Nuestro gran error está en tratar de obtener de cada uno en particular las virtudes que no posee, descuidando cultivar aquellas que posee. A la búsqueda de esas virtudes fragmentarias aplicaré aquí lo que decía antes, voluptuosamente, de la búsqueda de la belleza.”
― Marguerite Yourcenar, Memoirs of Hadrian
