Quote by Abel Posse

“Les predijo el futuro que se avecinaba con autoridad de visionario profesional: —¡Oh, son seres maravillosos, los que llegan! Hijos de la mutación. ¡Generosos! Una infinita bondad los desgarra: se quitarán el pan de la boca para saciar el hambre de nuestros hijos. Sé que su dios humano les manda amar al otro como a sí mismo. Serán incapaces de traernos muerte: detestan la guerra. Respetarán nuestras mujeres, porque su dios —infinitamente benigno— les manda no desear otra mujer que no sea la propia. (En esto son particularmente rigurosos.) Adoran un libro escrito por sabios y poetas. El dios que adoran es un hombrecillo golpeado, torturado, hasta ser puesto a muerte por unos militares. ¡Con el débil se identifican! ¡Al débil aman! »Digo, anuncio, que odian la guerra, la violencia, la violación. ¿Cuál es su fuerza?, os preguntaréis, y yo digo: la bondad y el amor. Ésa es su fuerza.”

“The hour was late, the beauty around him barbarous. The many scents brought by the air were toxic or sweet, depending on which way the gentle breeze blew. Sometimes the scents made his nostrils smart. He allowed them to embrace him. Joys of a wonderful nature arose in his heart. He loved his horse, its easy amble, the seductive night and the prying moon. God created the world, the wild, the horse, the breeze, man, birds and - love, and His consort at times agreed and at others did not. Gods played games. Even Gods played games. They fought too. Name a game that does not involve discord. He smiled at the thought.”

“The way he said it spoke of an ache I recognized. I knew that no matter how similar they were, no two losses were the same, but despite his loss being from a different circumstance, I felt his sadness as my own. We sat there in silence with my hand resting in his. My bandage told its own stories while we remembered the girl who taught Randolf such a valuable lesson about the small turning into the large.”
