Quote by Daniel Abraham

“It's the problem in seeing too much of the world. In loving too much of it. You can only live in one place at a time. And eventually, you pick your spot, and the memories of all the others just become ghosts.”

“It is said that when a person is experiencing death, and when shards of life begins to disintegrate from his mortal body, he starts getting a flashback of his entire life right in front of his eyes, like a reverie – a dream, or sometimes even a nightmare. When a person is dying, he can get a brief look of all the significant milestones of his life right in front of his eyes, as if time doesn’t exist and he is still right there, in that moment, where everything is possible; where he can get a piece of forever, while living in that uninvited flashback, and dying in his life, both at the same time.”

“Se puede ampliar el presente tanto como quiera, o lanzarse vertiginosamente hacia el futuro, o dar marcha atrás que es lo más peligroso porque ahí están los recuerdos, todos los recuerdos, los buenos, los regulares, los execrables. Ahí está el amor, o sea estás vos, y las grandes lealtades y también las grandes traiciones. Ahí está todo lo que uno pudo hacer y no hizo, y también lo que pudo no hacer y sí hizo. La encrucijada en la que el camino elegido fue el erróneo. Y ahí empieza la película, es decir cómo habría sido la historia si se hubiera tomado el otro rumbo, aquel que entonces se descartó.”
