“La utopía está en el horizonte. Camino dos pasos, ella se aleja dos pasos y el horizonte se corre diez pasos más allá. ¿Entonces para qué sirve la utopía? Para eso, sirve para caminar.”
― Eduardo Galeano

“God speaks to each of us as he makes us,
then walks with us silently out of the night.

These are the words we dimly hear:

You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.
Embody me.

Flare up like a flame
and make big shadows I can move in.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
Don't let yourself lose me.

Nearby is the country they call life.
You will know it by its seriousness.

Give me your hand.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Rilke's Book of Hours: Love Poems to God

“El camino sigue y sigue
desde la puerta.
El camino ha ido muy lejos,
y que otros lo sigan si pueden.
Que ellos emprendan un nuevo viaje,
pero yo al fin con pies fatigados
me volveré a la taberna iluminada,
al encuentro del sueño y el reposo.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

“It was strange how your brain could know what your heart refused to accept.”
― J.K. Rowling, The Casual Vacancy
