edit data

Writer, founder of *faircompanies.

I like reading, writing, photography.

I enjoy being with my family and books, the Internet, photography, running, arts, philosophy, classics, exploring interesting places (urban, natural, spiritual).

I have focused on the Internet as a tool for human improvement. I write both fiction & non fiction long stories. I wrote a trilogy (Trilogía del Largo Ahora), inspired by T.S. Eliot's "Four Quartets" opening on "time":

1) "Triskelion: historia verdadera de la conquista de la felicidad" (past);
2) "La rebelión del charna" (present);
3) "El valle de las adelfas fosforescentes" (future). ...more

“That one won’t crack, though, Mendel decided with approval; one of your flabby oak trees, Smiley was. Think you could blow him over with one puff, but when it comes to the storm he’s the only one left standing at the end of it.”

“I suppose you could call that a personality. Each machine has its own, unique personality which probably could be defined as the intuitive sum total of everything you know and feel about it. This personality constantly changes, usually for the worse, but sometimes surprisingly for the better, and it is this personality that is the real object of motorcycle maintenance.”
― Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

“The difference between a good mechanic and a bad one, like the difference between a good mathematician and a bad one, is precisely this ability to select the good facts from the bad ones on the basis of quality.”
