En la sociedad contemporánea la gente no muere por falta de maravillas, sino por la falta de maravillarse.

Qué satisfactorias son las tormentas en la madrugada. Se lo llevan casi todo. El calor de fin de mes, las hojas muertas a destiempo, los postes insostenibles de la cuadra, los silencios que aflojan una decisión, las voces de una casa rota.

Pero no se llevan tu nombre.

“¿Sabes qué es lo que más ayuda en la desgracia, Irina? Hablar. Nadie puede andar por el mundo solo (…) Todos tenemos demonios en los rincones oscuros del alma, pero si los sacamos a la luz, los demonios se achican, se debilitan, se callan y al fin nos dejan en paz.”

The Father (2020)

[librasjournal]

“—Agnes —dijo Paul y su voz se había puesto de pronto seria—. Tu rostro no se parece a ningún otro. Agnes no percibió el tono de la voz de Paul y sonrió. —No te rías. Lo digo en serio. Cuando estás enamorado de alguien, estás enamorado de su rostro y se convierte en un rostro que no se parece a ningún otro.”

— Milan Kundera. La inmortalidad. (via el-jujeniodeletras)

“What if you get sick of me?”

“I won’t, I promise”

Ruby Sparks (2012) dir. Jonathan Dayton, Valerie Faris

[librasjournal]

“There are two types of people you will meet in your life. One will run a finger down the index of who you are and jump straight to the parts of you that peak their interest. The other will take his or her time reading through every one of your chapters and maybe unfold corners of you that inspired them most. You will meet these two people; it is a given. It is the third that you’ll never see coming. That one person who not only finishes your sentences, but keeps the book.”

— Unknown

“I love you. So let me disappoint you. Because I know that if you love someone, you are opening yourself up to being disappointed by them. Because how can you love someone as a human, without everything that comes with that. So disappoint me. Disappoint me constantly, with all that you are and all that you could be and with everything that makes you, you. I promise to disappoint you, with my whole heart.”

— I Wrote This For You, Iain S. Thomas

“I couldn’t see you when you were here and now that you’re gone, I see you everywhere.”

Lady Bird (2017)

“It doesn’t hurt because if you keep hurting the same part of you again and again and again, the nerve endings all die. And when that happens, that part of you goes numb. That’s why it doesn’t hurt. Don’t be proud of it.”

— Iain S. Thomas, The Nerve Endings Shatter Like Glass
