“Power lacks moral or principles. It only has interests.”
Horacio Castellanos Moya

“...y a partir de ese golpe el alma en pena del registrador civil contaría su historia, en todo momento con las palmas de sus manos sin dedos apretando las dos mitades de su cabeza para mantener los sesos en su sitio, que el realismo mágico no me es por completo ajeno.”
Horacio Castellanos Moya, Senselessness

“Otobüste yolculuk edebilmek ancak her gün hayvan muamelesi görmeye alışınca mümkün oluyor.”
Horacio Castellanos Moya, El asco: Thomas Bernhard en San Salvador
