“No lo creo todavía
estás llegando a mi lado
y la noche es un puñado
de estrellas y de alegría
palpo gusto escucho y veo
tu rostro tu paso largo
tus manos y sin embargo
todavía no lo creo
tu regreso tiene tanto
que ver contigo y conmigo
que por cábala lo digo
y por las dudas lo canto
nadie nunca te reemplaza
y las cosas más triviales
se vuelven fundamentales
porque estás llegando a casa
sin embargo todavía dudo
de esta buena suerte
porque el cielo de tenerte
me parece fantasía
pero venís y es seguro
y venís con tu mirada
y por eso tu llegada
hace mágico el futuro
y aunque no siempre he entendido
mis culpa y mis fracasos
en cambio sé que en tus brazos
el mundo tiene sentido
y si beso la osadía
y el misterio de tus labios
no habrá dudas ni resabios
te querré más
todavía.”

“No long-term marriage is made easily, and there have been times when I've been so angry or so hurt that I thought my love would never recover. And then, in the midst of near despair, something has happened beneath the surface. A bright little flashing fish of hope has flicked silver fins and the water is bright and suddenly I am returned to a state of love again — till next time. I've learned that there will always be a next time, and that I will submerge in darkness and misery, but that I won't stay submerged. And each time something has been learned under the waters; something has been gained; and a new kind of love has grown. The best I can ask for is that this love, which has been built on countless failures, will continue to grow. I can say no more than that this is mystery, and gift, and that somehow or other, through grace, our failures can be redeemed and blessed.”

“No longer can we consider what the artist does to be a self-contained activity, mysteriously inspired from above, unrelated and unrelatable to other human activities. Instead, we recognize the exalted kind of seeing that leads to the creation of great art as an outgrowth of the humbler and more common activity of the eyes in everyday life. Just as the prosaic search for information is "artistic" because it involves giving and finding shape and meaning, so the artist's conceiving is an instrument of life, a refined way of understanding who and where we are.”

“No longer enslaved or made dependent by force of law, the great majority are so by force of property; they are still chained to a place, to an occupation, and to conformity with the will of an employer, and debarred by the accident of birth to both the enjoyments, and from the mental and moral advantages, which others inherit without exertion and independently of desert. That this is an evil equal to almost any of those against which mankind have hitherto struggles, the poor are not wrong in believing.”
