Bolaño knows better.

"Books are finite, sexual encounters are finite,but the desire to read and to fuck are infinite;
it surpasses our own deaths, our fears, our hopes for peace."

- Roberto Bolaño.
(Responding to Stéphane Mallarmé: “The flesh is sad—and I’ve read every book.”)


Amulet sucked me in and spit me back out again.
And now I am asking myself: Where shall I go from here? Everywhere, I suppose.
Somebody told me this evening that I am better equipped for the world than it is for me.
