A thing, until it is everything, is noise, and once it is everything it is silence. – Antonio Porchia, Voces, 1943, translated from Spanish by W.S. Merwin
And it is because a series of elements in Spanish life which operate today the same way as they did in the times of Blanco White made obvious my relationship with him, based on a similarity in Spains condition. – Juan Goytisolo
