“When the plane went down in San Francisco,
I thought of my friend M. He’s obsessed with plane crashes.

He memorizes the wrecked metal details,
the clear cool skies cut by black scars of smoke.

Once, while driving, he told me about all the crashes:
The one in blue Kentucky, in yellow Iowa.

How people go on, and how people don’t.

It was almost a year before I learned
that his brother was a pilot.

I can’t help it,
I love the way men love.”
― Ada Limon, Bright Dead Things

“Love is the most pernicious drug of all. Let the romantics debate its existence. Pragmatists accept it and use it.”
― Stephen King, Night Shift

“Todo eso que dice la gente que estuvo cercana a él y la gente en la calle, todo eso es verdad. Al menos es una verdad desde el punto de vista antropológico, porque es lo que la gente habla en la calle y es la creencia generalizada. Porque si no, ¿cuál va a ser la verdad? ¿La que te cuente el Gobierno?”
― David Placer, Los brujos de Chávez. La magia como prolongación de la política

“How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand... there is no going back? There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold.”
― JRR Tolkein
