“Urdimos tramas, dibujamos caricaturas, parodiamos, para encontrar algo de vida entre los muertos. Cantamos en un idioma que ignorábamos, y dos o tres palabras y toda la melodía y el ritmo y la intensidad nos suministraron historias mucho mejores que la original, casi siempre distintas, pero no equivocadas; intuíamos la canción, y las palabras contenían legendarias resonancias, parecían estar dichas para uno. Éramos minúsculos, provincianos pero también adivinos.”
