“There is no intellectual exercise that is not ultimately pointless” — Jorge Luis Borges

Jorge Luis Borges was an Argentinian literature-nut.

 

“What do you do…

“What do you do with the past in order to construct the future? Do you forget it? Or do you face it? If you remember too much, you may be captured by it. But if you don’t remember enough, you may be erasing your origins. ” — Ariel Dorfman

Ariel Dorfman is a Chilean playwright, novelist, and activist.
