Stephen Chbosky
“Maybe these are my glory days, and I'm not ever realizing it because they involve a ball.”
Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Pola Oloixarac
“All war is based in deception (cfr. Sun Tzu, “The Art of War”).

Definition of deception: “The practice of deliberately making somebody believe things that are not true. An act, a trick or device entended to deceive somebody”.

Thus, all war is based in metaphor.

All war necessarily perfects itself in poetry.

Poetry (since indefinable) is the sense of seduction.

Therefore, all war is the storytelling of seduction, and seduction is the nature of war.”
Pola Oloixarac, Las teorías salvajes

Miranda July
“But, like ivy, we grow where there is room for us.”
Miranda July, No One Belongs Here More Than You

Fernando Vallejo
“…yo no inventé esta realidad es ella la que me está inventando a mí…”
Fernando Vallejo

Stephen Chbosky
“Maybe it’s sad that these are now memories. And maybe it’s not sad.”
Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower
