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

Stephen Chbosky
“It's strange because sometimes, I read a book, and I think I am the people in the book.”
Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Miranda July
“Some people are uncomfortable with silences. Not me. I’ve never cared much for call and response. Sometimes I will think of something to say and then I ask myself: is it worth it? And it just isn’t.”
Miranda July, No One Belongs Here More Than You

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

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
