"«Cities can be lonely places, and in admitting this we see that loneliness doesn’t necessarily require physical solitude, but rather an abscence or paucity of connection, closeness, kinship: an inability, for one reason or another, to find as much intimacy as is desired.»" Nov 14, 2023 07:26PM

Paulo Freire
“... no entiendo la existencia humana y la necesaria lucha por mejorarla sin la esperanza y sin el sueño.”
Paulo Freire

Isabelle Eberhardt
“Now more than ever do I realize that I will never be content with a sedentary life, that I will always be haunted by thoughts of a sun-drenched elsewhere.”
Isabelle Eberhardt, The Nomad: Diaries of Isabelle Eberhardt

Albert Camus
“Un hombre se define tan bien por sus comedias como por sus impulsos sinceros”
Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus

T.S. Eliot
“And if all that is meaningless, I want to be cured
Of a craving for something I cannot find And of the shame of never finding it.”
T.S. Eliot, The Cocktail Party

Lemony Snicket
“I will love you if you don’t marry me. I will love you if you marry someone else your co-star, perhaps, or Y., or even O., or anyone Z. through A., even R. Although sadly I believe it will be quite some time before two women can be allowed to marry and I will love you if you have a child, and I will love you if you have two children, or three children, or even more, although I personally think three is plenty, and I will love you if you never marry at all, and never have children, and spend your years wishing you had married me after all, and I must say that on late, cold nights I prefer this scenario out of all the scenarios I have mentioned. That, Beatrice, is how I will love you even as the world goes on its wicked way.”
Lemony Snicket
