“So many people consider their work a daily punishment. Whereas I love my work as a translator. Translation is a journey over a sea from one shore to the other. Sometimes I think of myself as a smuggler: I cross the frontier of language with my booty of words, ideas, images, and metaphors.”
― Amara Lakhous, Clash of Civilizations Over an Elevator in Piazza Vittorio

“Siempre estaré del lado de aquellos que no tienen nada y que ni siquiera pueden disfrutar de nada de lo que tienen en paz.”
― Federico García Lorca
