Marcos's favorite quotes

""We are liable to miss the best of life if we do not know how to tingle, if we do not learn to hoist ourselves just a little higher than we generally are in order to sample the rarest and ripest fruit of art which human thought has to offer.""
— Nabokov/Vladimir (Regarde les arlequins)

"The books we need are of the kind that act upon us like a misfortune, that make us feel as though we were on the verge of suicide, or lost in a forest remote from all human habitation-a book should serve as the ax for the frozen sea within us"
Kafka, Franz
