我们
Literature is the memory of humanity, and without it we are nothing.
We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edges of print. It gave us more freedom. We lived in the gaps between the stories.
The past is always changing. Every time we remember something, we alter it slightly, until eventually, our memories become stories we tell ourselves.
We all want to be told stories, and we all want to tell stories. It's one of the things that makes us human.
The world is so unpredictable. Things happen suddenly, unexpectedly. We want to feel we are in control of our own existence. In some ways we are, in some ways we're not. We are ruled by the forces of chance and coincidence.
We are all exiles from someplace, even if it's from our own childhood.
La memoria es el único paraíso del cual no podemos ser expulsados.
The only thing we can know is that we know nothing and that is the highest flight of human wisdom.
A vida é o que fazemos dela. As viagens são os viajantes. O que vemos não é o que vemos, senão o que somos.
The function of art is to make us see things, not to make us agree with the artist.
To be a writer is to acknowledge the secret wounds that we carry inside us, the ones that never heal and that define who we are.
The best stories are those that resonate with our own hidden thoughts.
The greatest danger is not that we will lose our way, but that we will become content with where we are.
"Behind every post is a real person with real feelings—let's not forget that."
I don't know what's tighter, our jeans or our harmonies.
