If I still had the space, charcoal, and available walls, I could compose a great work about forgetting: a general theory of oblivion. - José Eduardo Agualusa

God weighs souls on a pair of scales. In one of the dishes is the soul, and in the other, the tears of those who weep for it. If nobody cries, the soul goes straight down to hell. If there are enough tears and they are sufficiently heartfelt, it rises up to heaven.

Speeches don't feed people. What the people need are fresh vegetables and a good fish broth, at least once a week. I'm only interested in the kinds of revolution that start off by getting people to the table.

I have understood over these last years that in order to believe in God, it is essential to have trust in humanity. There is no God without humanity.
