“Hay experiencias en la vida que te cambian, te hacen repensar la trayectoria de tus actos y te interpelan acerca de tu lugar en el mundo. Retrospectivamente, puedo identificar a ésta como una de ellas. Fue tan rápida, fortuita y cruel, que jamás volví a sentirme a salvo ni en el café ni en el bar. Jamás volví a ver el mundo con los mismos lentes de color de rosas. Jamás volví a confiarme al andar por la calle. Hubo una parte de mi juventud que se perdió en aquel instante, como si la inocencia que no sabía que aún poseía hubiese sido ultrajada de manera definitiva. El mundo era ahora un sitio peligroso, uno que podía ponerle fin a todo de un segundo al otro.”

“No me canso de afirmar que existe un universo de personas con una imposibilidad fisiológica para la calma. Yo soy una de ellas. Y es necesario nombrar a la ansiedad para que ese estribillo que cantan los “cálmate, no va a pasar nada” deje de repetirse porque es un sinsentido. Porque el hecho es que sí ocurre algo, pero ocurre dentro. Una tormenta, el pánico, la locura, un tiroteo. Un león que te persigue, un abismo que se abre, la sensación de que estás sin estar, de que la realidad, por más palpable y presente que sea, para ti es brumosa, lejana, desenfocada.”
