“Tanto quanto a literatura, a música pode determinar uma reviravolta, um transtorno emotivo, uma tristeza ou um êxtase absolutos; tanto quanto a literatura, a pintura pode gerar um deslumbramento, um olhar novo depositado sobre o mundo. Mas só a literatura pode dar essa sensação de contato com outro espírito humano, com a integralidade desse espírito, suas fraquezas e grandezas, suas limitações, suas mesquinharias, suas ideias fixas, suas crenças; com tudo o que o comove, o interessa, o excita ou o repugna. Só a literatura permite entrar em contato com o espírito de um morto, da maneira mais direta, mais completa e até mais profunda do que a conversa com um amigo — por mais profunda e duradoura que seja uma amizade, numa conversa nunca nos entregamos tão completamente como o fazemos diante de uma página em branco, dirigindo-nos a um destinatário desconhecido.”

“The two friends went on and on toward the sierra, at times keeping the highway, at times. deviating from it. Whenever they passed through a town or a hamlet, the slow peal of bells tolling the death-knell announced to our hero that the Angel of Death was not losing his time; that his arm reached to every part of the world, and that, though Gil felt it now weighing upon his breast like a mountain of ice, none the less did it scatter ruin and desolation over the entire surface of the earth. As they went, the Angel of Death related many strange and wonderful things to his protege. The foe of history, he took pleasure in scoffing at its pretended utility, in disproof of which he narrated many facts as they had actually occurred, and not as they are recorded on monuments and in chronicles. The abysses of the past opened before the entranced imagination of Gil Gil, revealing to him facts of transcendent importance concerning the fate of man and of empires, disclosing to him the great mystery of the origin of life and the no less great and terrible mystery of the end to which we, wrongly called mortals, are progressing, and causing him, finally, to comprehend, by the light of this sublime philosophy, the laws which preside at the evolution of cosmic matter, and its various manifestations in those ephemeral and transitory forms which are called minerals, plants,animals, stars, constellations, nebula, and worlds. ("The Friend Of The Death")”
