Too Sweet

 

Estrellas

There is no easy way to the stars from the earth.

Sabiduría

How terrible is wisdom, when it brings no profit to the wise man.

Última foto

 Para tomarte una foto noventosa
ponte un vaquero roto
y la campera de cuero de tu padre
gafas oscuras y las manos en los bolsillos
No mires a la cámara
la popularidad no te interesa
Naciste mala y sola
y mala y desolada morirás
La campera de cuero de tu padre
te queda grande
como todos los símbolos
de autoridad o poder
o de cuanto pueda ser noble o respetable
Chica mala
veneno y núcleo de la oscuridad
yérguete con orgullo de monstruo ante la cámara
Nunca habrá una campera a tu medida
porque naciste mala y desolada
y nada de esto está hecho para ti
ni siquiera el lenguaje
ya no intentes hablar
porque si dijeras tus palabras
—tus genuinas palabras—
no serían palabras
serían cuchilladas
que te destrozarían al salir
y te desgarrarían las entrañas
Así que olvídalo
Prepara con orgullo esta última escena
No vuelvas a ser cómplice de nada
porque tú en nada crees
ni has creído jamás
Enciende un cigarrillo
Que no haya en esta foto
ni luz ni movimiento ni color
No sonrías
Vuélvete el corazón de las tinieblas
No le devuelvas al mundo la mirada

El arte de amar

Mother's love is bliss, is peace, it need not be acquired, it need not be deserved. If it is there, it is like a blessing; if it is not there it is as if all the beauty had gone out of life.

Amor

Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.

Paz

Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles.

Imaginación

Imagination and fiction make up more than three-quarters of our real lives.

Vivir

How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live.

Libre

Others indeed may talk, write, and fight about liberty, and make an outward presence to it, but the free-thinker alone is truly free.

De la felicidad

A benefit should be kept like a buried treasure, only to be dug up in necessity...Nature bids us to do well by all...Wherever there is a human being, we have an opportunity for kindness.

La República

The greatest price of refusing to participate in politics is being governed by your inferiors.

Vida

Life is like a play; it's not the length, but the excellence of the acting that matters.

Gracias

Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues but the parent of all the others.

Grandeza

It is a rough road that leads to the heights of greatness.

More Than Us

Apasionado interés

The wise ones bet heavily when the world offers them that opportunity. They bet big when they have the odds. And the rest of the time, they don't. It's just that simple.

Alma

Gratitude is the fairest blossom that springs from the soul.

Gratitud

There is no better excess in the world than the excess of gratitude.

Húmedo

Terry fue uno de los mejores escritores de fantasía que ha existido, y sin duda, el más divertido. Era tan ingenioso como prolífico, que no es poco. Un hombre listo, gracioso, profundo, cálido y amable, un hombre de infinita paciencia, un hombre que de verdad sabía como disfrutar de la vida... y de los libros.
George R. R. Martin

Se le echará mucho de menos, pero ¡qué legado de ingenio y alegrías nos deja!
Ursula K. Le Guin

Presente

Always hold fast to the present. Every situation, indeed every moment, is of infinite value, for it is the representative of a whole eternity.

New Year's Morning

 ...Always a night from old to new!
Night and the healing balm of sleep!
Each morn is New Year's morn come true,
Morn of a festival to keep.
All nights are sacred nights to make
Confession and resolve and prayer;
All days are sacred days to wake
New gladness in the sunny air.
Only a night from old to new;
Only a sleep from night to morn.
The new is but the old come true;
Each sunrise sees a new year born.
