Julio Cortázar
“history is like steak and potatoes, you can order it everywhere and it always tastes the same.”
Julio Cortázar, Fantomas contra los vampiros multinacionales

“A partir de la certeza de que en los niños descansaba el futuro del país, se volcó hacia ellos un especial cuidado atendiendo su desarrollo físico y mental a través de la educación. Los niños comenzaron, entonces, a ser un asunto de Estado; es decir, éste asumía la responsabilidad de enriquecer y regular su formación, por medio del control educativo. Para la mentalidad liberal y positivista que permeaba los círculos intelectuales y políticos del Porfiriato, la educación se concebía como el único medio para alcanzar la civilización y el progreso de la sociedad”
Beatriz Alcubierre, Los niños villistas: Una mirada a la historia de la infancia en México, 1900-1920
