Manuel Castilla)
Yo afirmo -sin remilgado temor ni novelero amor de la paradoja- que solamente los paises nuevos tiene pasado...Si el tiempo es sucesión, debemos reconocer que donde densidad mayor hay de hechos, más tiempo corre y que el más caudaloso es el de este inconsecuente lado del mundo. ... Yo no he sentido el liviano tiempo en Granada, a la sombra de torres cientos de veces más antiguas que las higueras, y sí en Pampa y Triunvirato: insipido lugar de tejas anglizantes ahora, de hornos humosos de ladrillos hace tres años, de potreros caóticos hace cinco.", (J.L. Borges en "Evaristo Carriego")

"...sometimes I miss not having done more schooling, not having learned to learn. With age coming opinions that matter to me are few. I guess because opinions that really tell me how I did in life are few. Applauses, critics, taps on the shoulder... all of this ends up been a buzz in the back - pleasant... or unpleasant - but without true significance. Now only a few voices matter to me, the voices of my roots: my father’s, my mother’s or my people in Algeciras". (Paco de Lucia, in his honorary PhD speech).
