Guillermo Saccomanno
“Pero pronto se convence de que no es así. No se trata, en su caso, de someterse y sobrevivir. Si ha seguido adelante durante tanto tiempo no fue por cobardía sino por esperanza: el anhelo de un hecho trascendente: el amor. Porque el amor, lo sabía, finalmente le abriría una perspectiva nueva de la existencia. Está enamorado. El amor lo recupera a uno de toda abyección.”
Guillermo Saccomanno, El oficinista

Guillermo Saccomanno
“La espera es una paz engañosa.”
Guillermo Saccomanno, El oficinista
