“Es por eso, que en nombre de la nobleza que creo tener, te perdono. Te perdono porque eres una víctima, porque tu alma está atrapada, porque ningún mal que has hecho ha sido a propósito. Te perdono porque debo perdonarte. Te perdono y también me perdono a mí mismo, por creerte un enemigo cuando no lo eras. Me perdono por la ira, por el deseo de venganza, y por sentir todavía algo de rencor… Me perdono haberme culpado tanto. Y principalmente, me perdono porque todo dolor que nace de la culpa, debe morir con el perdón. Ahora quiero que descanses en paz.”

“When someone tells me they don’t like my books — always a strange way to open a conversation but hey such is life — I first think: How is that my problem? I just wrote the damn thing. And second: welcome to the club. Books, by nature, disappoint. 99.9999* of the planet will never read, much less like, anything you’ve written. The surprise for me is not that someone didn’t like or read my work but that someone in this messed up Chthulucene planet did. Books are the triumph of humble collectives, offerings to the god of small things.”
