Naomi Klein
“People without memory are putty.”
Naomi Klein

Eduardo Galeano
“Each person shines with his or her own light. No two flames are alike. There are big flames and little flames, flames of every color. Some people’s flames are so still they don’t even flicker in the wind, while others have wild flames that fill the air with sparks. Some foolish flames neither burn nor shed light, but others blaze with life so fiercely that you can’t look at them without blinking, and if you approach you shine in the fire.”
Eduardo Galeano

Adolfo Bioy Casares
“Under the bludgeonings of fate
My head is bloody, but unbowed.”
Adolfo Bioy Casares, Diario de la guerra del cerdo

Eduardo Galeano
“In this world of ours, a world of powerful centers and subjugated outposts, there is no wealth that must not be held in some suspicion.”
Eduardo Galeano

Blas de Otero
“They don't let people see what I write because I write what I see”
Blas De Otero
