Quote by Elie Wiesel

“There's a long road of suffering ahead of you. But don't lose courage. You've already escaped the gravest danger: selection. So now, muster your strength, and don't lose heart. We shall all see the day of liberation. Have faith in life. Above all else, have faith. Drive out despair, and you will keep death away from yourselves. Hell is not for eternity. And now, a prayer - or rather, a piece of advice: let there be comradeship among you. We are all brothers, and we are all suffering the same fate. The same smoke floats over all our heads. Help one another. It is the only way to survive.”

I mean, I can't think of who it is you think you’re accepting.” Birdie put her hand on Leeda’s and crushed her fingers in her brave Birdie way. “Just you, Leeda. I just love you whoever you are.”

“Michael [Hutchence] is hands down one of the greatest frontmen in music. The style, the voice—all of it. Any way that I was ever influenced by him really comes down to small, pale imitations compared to the real thing. There is a fearlessness about him. Watching him at Wembley Stadium with 70,000 people, he looks as comfortable as if he were in his own living room.”

“En los ochenta, aún se escuchaban guitarras en las discotecas e incluso cuando sonaban esos niñatos de Hombres G, por más que arrugáramos la nariz con mohín despectivo, no podíamos dejar de corear que quiero comprarme un jersey a rayas. Entonces ()La música aún podía salvarnos. Fue justo antes de que se pusiera en marcha la trituradora de emociones, la mákina, la electrónica, el house, el trance, los miles de nombres para aludir a la victoria del frío.”
