    Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer
    “¡Los suspiros son aire y van al aire!
    ¡Las lágrimas son agua y van al mar!
    Dime, mujer, cuando el amor se olvida
    ¿sabes tú adónde va?”
    Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer

    Pablo Neruda
    “Don't go far off, not even for a day,
    because I don't know how to say it - a day is long
    and I will be waiting for you, as in
    an empty station when the trains are
    parked off somewhere else, asleep.

    Don't leave me, even for an hour, because then
    the little drops of anguish will all run together,
    the smoke that roams looking for a home will drift
    into me, choking my lost heart.

    Oh, may your silhouette never dissolve
    on the beach, may your eyelids never flutter
    into the empty distance. Don't LEAVE me for
    a second, my dearest, because in that moment you'll
    have gone so far I'll wander mazily
    over all the earth, asking, will you
    come back? Will you leave me here, dying?”
    Pablo Neruda

    Sylvain Reynard
    “—¿Por qué sigues creyendo en Dios? ¿No estás enfadada con Él por todas las cosas malas que te han pasado?

    Ella interrumpió lo que estaba haciendo y se volvió hacia él. Gabriel parecía muy infeliz.

    —A todo el mundo le pasan cosas malas. ¿Por qué iba a ser yo distinta a los demás?

    —Porque eres buena.

    Ella se miró las manos.

    —El universo no se basa en la magia. No hay unas reglas para las personas buenas y otras para las personas malas. Todo el mundo sufre en un momento u otro. Lo importante es lo que haces con tu dolor, ¿no crees?”
    Sylvain Reynard, Gabriel's Rapture

    Plutarch
    “... man by nature is not a wild or unsocial creature, neither was he born so, but makes himself what he naturally is not, by vicious habit; and that again on the other side, he is civilized and grows gentle by a change of place, occupation, and manner of life, as beasts themselves that are wild by nature, become tame and tractable by housing and gentler usage...”
    Plutarch, Plutarch's Lives: Volume II
