Quotes by Paco Ignacio Taibo II (?)

“Εγώ δεν είμαι από 'δω. Δεν είμαι απ' αυτή τη γη όπου γεννήθηκα. Και στη ζωή μαθαίνεις, μαθαίνει αυτός που θέλει να μάθει, ότι κανένας δεν είναι από 'κεί που γεννήθηκε, από 'κει που τον μεγάλωσαν. Ότι κανένας δεν είναι από πουθενά. Μερικοί προσπαθούν να συντηρήσουν αυταπάτες και δημιουργούν νοσταλγίες, ιδιοκτησίες, ύμνους και σημαίες. Ανήκουμε όλοι στους τόπους που δεν γνωρίσαμε. Αν υπάρχει νοσταλγία, είναι για τα πράγματα που ποτέ δεν είδαμε, για τις γυναίκες που μαζί τους δεν κοιμηθήκαμε κι ούτε ονειρευτήκαμε. Και για τους φίλους που δεν αποκτήσαμε ακόμα, τα βιβλία που δεν διαβάσαμε, τα φαγητά που αχνίζουν στη χύτρα κι ακόμα δεν τα δοκιμάσαμε. Αυτή είναι η αληθινή νοσταλγία, η μοναδική.”
