John Keats
“The excellence of every Art is its intensity.”
John Keats, Complete Poems and Selected Letters

Sylvia Plath
“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in life. And I am horribly limited.”
Sylvia Plath

Gustave Flaubert
“No era feliz, no lo había sido nunca. ¿De dónde venía, pues, aquella insuficiencia, de la vida, aquella instantánea podredumbre de las cosas en que se apoyaba?[...]. Cada sonrisa disimulaba un bostezo de aburrimiento, cada alegría una maldición, cada placer su propio asco, y los mejores besos no dejaban sobre los labios más que un delirio irrealizable de una voluptuosidad más alta.”
Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary

Fernando Pessoa
“En mi corazón hay una paz de angustia, y mi sosiego está hecho de resignación.”
Fernando Pessoa, Libro del desasosiego

Tobias Wolff
“A piece of writing is a dangerous thing," he said. "It can change your life.”
Tobias Wolff
