Quote by Elvira Lindo

“Los malos se vuelven buenos al final de la vida. Eso está ya muy visto. Pero es lo que tienen los viejos. Que despistan. Que despiertan una compasión que a lo mejor no merecen. (...) Por eso a mi cuando se me sienta un abuelo al lado y me empieza a dar la brasa con su soledad, le digo: un momento, señor, que yo también tengo muchos traumas".”

You need a very high level of sanity to confront it, which is why I find it to be a funny coincidence when the crazy ones tell you that you are crazy for seeing the truth that they themselves are too afraid to analyze. They don't want to analyze it because, well, they may realize that the truth is true. They can't deal with such outcome. They would rather see you dead first.”
