“A psychiatric ward bears the greatest likeness to Hell itself than any other of man’s earthly constructions, with circles and cells for the terminally ill. It’s a cloister duplicated for those who, upon arrival, are already imprisoned in themselves.”
Gustavo Faverón Patriau, The Antiquarian

“It's not that I refuse to look at the world around me, but that I refuse to pretend it's anymore important than everything else, you know what I mean? The moments from the past or from the future, the unreal scenes from tales, dreams, the projects we push aside each day that exist in the doubt we stop having in order to live--they're all worlds as true as this one, and I neither abandon or degrade them. So, I suppose that if I live in so many spaces at once, being absent from this one from time to time should be excusable, don't you think?”
Gustavo Faverón Patriau

“Los libros que uno escribe sin pensar encienden algo en los demás:ahí está el sentido, afuera del libro. Los que uno escribe para decir algo, no sirven para nada.”
Gustavo Faverón Patriau, Vivir abajo
