Quote by Anne Frank

“People who have a religion should be glad, for not everyone has the gift of believing in heavenly things. You don't necessarily even have to be afraid of punishment after death; purgatory, hell, and heaven are things that a lot of people can't accept, but still a religion, it doesn't matter which, keeps a person on the right path. It isn't the fear of God but the upholding of one's own honor and conscience. How noble and good everyone could be if, every evening before falling asleep, they were to recall to their minds the events of the while day and consider exactly what has been good and bad. Then, without realizing it you try to improve yourself at the start of each new day; of course, you achieve quite a lot in the course of time. Anyone can do this, it costs nothing and is certainly very helpful. Whoever doesn't know it must learn and find by experience that: "A quiet conscience mades one strong!”

“Pero secretamente añadí que consideraba a Félix como algo mío, el hermano que vivió el lado difícil de la vida que a mí no me tocó, el amante platónico que todas las noches se tendía junto a mí en la cama convertible y me contaba extraordinarias películas que jamás se filmaron o más bien superpelículas ideales fabricadas de trozos que él amaba particularmente, un rostro, un gesto, una situación, un lugar arrebatados a la muerte por la cámara”

“Uno de los factores básicos que permite la estabilidad de una pareja no es el tener buena situación económica o recursos que les permitan una sobrevivencia adecuada. Es sólo que gozan de su mutua compañía y han aprendido por sobre todas las cosas a ser amigos. Se respetan, se escuchan y realizan actividades juntos. Pueden reír, dialogar y pasear porque han aprendido a compartir. Todas estas características son propias de la amistad.”
