Quote by Jorge Balderas Gálvez

“Buscábamos vida en otros planetas, pero en realidad no era necesario, no hay nada más tenebroso en el espacio que aquello que encontramos en nuestro propio planeta. Fuimos unos idiotas, la humanidad por fin pudo descender a las profundidades del océano y despertamos esa cosa. No tardamos en arrepentirnos, no tardamos en pagar las consecuencias.”

“¿Qué opino de mí mismo? Que soy un individuo inquieto y angustiado por este permanente problema: de qué modo debe vivir el hombre para ser feliz, o mejor dicho, de qué modo debería vivir yo para ser completamente dichoso. Como uno no puede hacer de su vida un laboratorio de ensayos por falta de tiempo, dinero y cultura, desdoblo de mis deseos personajes imaginarios que trato de novelar. Al novelar estos personajes comprendo si yo, Roberto Arlt, viviendo del modo A, B o C, sería o no feliz.”

“Jarret supporters have been known, now and then, to form mobs and burn people at the stake for being witches. Witches! In 2032! A witch, in their view, tends to be a Moslem, a Jew, a Hindu, a Buddhist, or, in some parts of the country, a Mormon, a Jehovah’s Witness, or even a Catholic. A witch may also be an atheist, a “cultist,” or a well-to-do eccentric. Well-to-do eccentrics often have no protectors or much that’s worth stealing. And “cultist” is a great catchall term for anyone who fits into no other large category, and yet doesn’t quite match Jarret’s version of Christianity. Jarret’s people have been known to beat or drive out Unitarians, for goodness’ sake. Jarret condemns the burnings, but does so in such mild language that his people are free to hear what they want to hear. As for the beatings, the tarring and feathering, and the destruction of “heathen houses of devil-worship,” he has a simple answer: “Join us! Our doors are open to every nationality, every race! Leave your sinful past behind, and become one of us. Help us to make America great again.” He’s had notable success with this carrot-and-stick approach. Join us and thrive, or whatever happens to you as a result of your own sinful stubbornness is your problem.”
