High ResolutionAdoro esse cara.
Jorge Luis Borges
“There’s something magic: I still keep on buying books. I can’t read them, but their presence help me… that silent gravitation. To feel they are there.”
“Hay algo mágico: yo continúo comprando libros. No puedo leerlos, pero la presencia de los libros me ayuda… esa gravitación silenciosa. Sentir que están ahí.”

"Cram your head with characters and stories. Abuse your library privileges. Never stop looking at the world, and never stop reading to find out what sense other people have made of it. If people give you a hard time and tell you to get your nose out of a book, tell them you’re working. Tell them it’s research. Tell them to pipe down and leave you alone."

"I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in life. And I am horribly limited."
- Sylvia Plath(Source: lecigar)
