Quote by Patrick Rothfuss

“En los meses de primavera todo está demasiado lleno de vida. En verano, está demasiado fuerte y no hay manera de soltarlo. El otoño es el momento idóneo. En otoño todo está cansado y más dispuesto a morir.”

“Time. For some it was a great healer, the ultimate fixer of bad break-ups, shake-ups, and heartache… For others, Time was an insidious stealer of all things they want most in life, stripping it away from them by sneakily changing the rules of obtaining it… For all the joyful wishes and hopeful desires held near and dear to our hearts, Time was the one element most likely to keep it from our reach. To me, Time was all of these, and none. Time simply is. It’s the framework in which we play out the games of our lives, but the secret is not to control it. It is not to master it. It is simply to learn to exist fully within the moment, to be aware of every facet of our being, and to wring every ounce of joy from it. Perhaps we were our own thieves, lamenting the absence of even a spare moment to enjoy life, when all it really takes is to stop the complaints, take the moment firmly in hand, and make it our own. Because the secret is that Time passes, and if you let it, it will leave you in its wake, aching with every beat of your heart and in every fiber of your being for what you have missed.”

“Siempre he creído que el destino, amén de su afición a embestir a los inocentes por la espalda y a ser posible a calzón quitado, gustaba de anidar en las estaciones de tren en sus pausas de refresco. Allí empezaban o terminaban tragedias y romances, huidas y retornos, traiciones y ausencias. La vida, se decía, es una estación de tren en la que uno casi siempre se sube, o le suben, al vagón equivocado.”
