Oscar Wilde
“There seemed to be something tragic in a friendship so coloured by romance.”
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Rosario Castellanos
“Eva: La muerte será la prueba de que hemos vivido.”
Rosario Castellanos, El eterno femenino

Alejandra Pizarnik
“Enamorarse a solas es enamorarse del silencio, un silencio con humo y espejos. El amor, si es algo, es dos que se miran. Tú has intentado crear su mirada en tu mágico laboratorio poético. No quejarse si estás quemada y dolorida. En vez de dos ojos salió una sonrisa de desprecio. La que esperabas, sin duda. Pero como era demasiado insoportable revelarte que buscabas la desdicha pura te entregaste falsamente a lo que no buscabas.”
Alejandra Pizarnik, Diarios

Mario Benedetti
“Mi táctica es
mirarte
aprender como sos
quererte como sos

mi táctica es
hablarte
y escucharte
construir con palabras
un puente indestructible

mi táctica es
quedarme en tu recuerdo
no sé cómo ni sé
con qué pretexto
pero quedarme en vos

mi táctica es
ser franco
y saber que sos franca
y que no nos vendamos
simulacros
para que entre los dos

no haya telón
ni abismos

mi estrategia es
en cambio
más profunda y más
simple
mi estrategia es
que un día cualquiera
no sé cómo ni sé
con qué pretexto
por fin me necesites”
Mario Benedetti Táctica y estrategia

George Orwell
“If there was hope, it must lie in the proles, because only there, in those swarming disregarded masses, eighty-five percent of the population of Oceania, could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. The Party could not be overthrown from within. Its enemies, if it had any enemies, had no way of coming together or even of identifying one another. Even if the legendary Brotherhood existed, as just possibly it might, it was inconceivable that its members could ever assemble in larger numbers than twos and threes. Rebellion meant a look in the eyes, an inflection of the voice; at the most, an occasional whispered word. But the proles, if only they could somehow become conscious of their own strength, would have no need to conspire. They need only to rise up and shake themselves like a horse shaking off flies. If they chose they could blow the Party to pieces tomorrow morning. Surely sooner or later it must occur to them to do it.”
George Orwell, 1984
