you treat them like
they have a heart like yours
but not everybody can be as
soft and as tender

you don’t see the
person they are
you see the person
they have the potential to be

you give and give till
they pull everything out of you
and leave you empty

Estos hombres son pocos, aunque en efecto aquí y en otras partes han existido en el pasado y creo que existirán en el futuro hombres buenos y honrados respecto a esa virtud de administrar justamente lo que se les confía;(…) pero, amigo, la mayor parte de los hombres poderosos son malos.

los hombres que llegan a ser más perversos salen de entre los poderosos; sin embargo, nada impide que entre ellos se produzcan también hombres buenos, y los que lo son merecen mayor admiración, porque es muy difícil y digno de gran alabanza mantenerse justo toda la vida cuando se tiene plena libertad de ser injusto.

Everything goes away eventually, and women are always the last ones standing so we just make up something else to want.

Everything is broken and messed up and completely fine. That is what life is. It’s only the ratios that change. Usually on their own. As soon as you think that’s it, it’s going to be like this forever, they change again.

She doesn’t want to be let go. People letting her go has become a theme. For once, she would like to be detained.

Nostos, (...) returning home. Algos, pain. Nostalgia is the suffering caused by our unappeased yearning to return.

Everything is redeemable, Martha. Even decisions that end up with you unconscious and bleeding in a pedestrian underpass, like me. Although ideally, you want to figure out the reason why you keep burning your own house down.

Winsome was an adult, someone who took care, who loved order and beauty and laboured to create it as a gift to other people.

Dicen los sabios (…) que al cielo, a la tierra, a los dioses y a los hombres los gobierna la unión, la amistad, el buen orden, la moderación y la justicia, y por esta razón (…) llaman a este conjunto «cosmos» (orden) y no desorden y desenfreno.

Lucía is on page 95 of 208 of Gorgias
obrar de tal modo que la justicia y la moderación acompañen al que quiere ser feliz sin permitir que los deseos se hagan irreprimibles y, por intentar satisfacerlos, lo que es un mal inacabable, llevar una vida de bandido. Pues un hombre así no puede ser grato ni a otro hombre ni a ningún Dios, porque es incapaz de convivencia, y el que no es capaz de convivencia tampoco lo es de amistad.

Lucía is on page 95 of 208 of Gorgias
el que quiera ser feliz debe buscar y practicar, según parece, la moderación y huir del libertinaje con toda la diligencia que pueda, y debe procurar, sobre todo, no tener necesidad de ser castigado; pero si él mismo o algún otro de sus allegados o un particular o la ciudad lo necesita, es preciso que se le aplique la pena y sufra el castigo si quiere llegar a ser feliz.

Stop waiting and be free. Of me—put me deep inside you and then go out in the world and live. Love the world and yourself in it, move through it as though it offers no resistance, as though the world is your natural element.

The compelling thing about making art—or making anything, I suppose—is the moment when the vaporous, insubstantial idea becomes a solid there, a thing, a substance in a world of substances.

Nuestro menor deseo, aunque único como un acorde, admite en sí las notas fundamentales sobre las que se levanta toda nuestra vida. Y a veces, si suprimiéramos una de ellas, que, sin embargo, no oímos, de la que no tenemos consciencia, que no tiene nada que ver con el objeto que perseguimos, veríamos, sin embargo, esfumarse todo nuestro deseo.

right now we are here, and nothing can mar our perfection, or steal the joy of this perfect moment.

el cariño que me prodigaba era como esos alimentos prohibidos que ya no se les niegan a los enfermos cuando es seguro que ya no pueden curarse.

Praise means nothing to Mama, she doesn't believe it. Only criticism can flush her cheeks and catch her attention. If I were to say something disparaging she would remember it always.

I feel guilty for wanting to avoid the sadness; dead people need us to remember them, even if it eats us, even if all we can do is say I'm sorry until it is as meaningless as air.
