“Memory is a patient sculptor. It chisels away the rough edges and refines the scenes you carry. A childhood street that once felt endless becomes shorter in recollection, but more idyllic. ... The mind softens the harshness and highlights the tenderness. It leaves you with impressions more than exact details: the smell of jasmine in the evening, the sound of rain on an old roof, the feeling of safety in a friend’s kitchen.”

“—Cuando uno decide que ama a otro tanto que renuncia a todos los demás no se queda ciego ni se vuelve invisible, sigue viendo y le siguen viendo. No tiene ningún mérito ser fiel cuando lo que vemos no nos tienta o cuando nadie nos mira. La verdadera prueba se presenta cuando aparece alguien de quien nos enamoraríamos de no tener pareja, alguien que sí da la talla, que nos gusta y nos atrae. Alguien que sería la persona perfecta de no ser porque ya hemos elegido a otra persona perfecta. Ésa es la fidelidad, inspectora.”
