““The bad thing about terrible misfortunes, the kind that tear us apart and appear to be unendurable, is that those who suffer them believe or almost demand that the world should end right there, and yet the world pays no heed and carries on regardless and even tugs at the sleeve of the person who suffered the misfortune, I mean, it won’t just let them depart this world the way a disgruntled spectator might leave the theatre, unless the unfortunate person kills him or herself.””
![“... los planes que uno se traza no son más que tentativas y pruebas, cartas que se van descubriendo y la mayoría de ellas no salen, no combinan[...] Y si pasan pasan aun uno no las quiera o no pasan aunque las anhele...” quote by Javier Marías](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/188/javier-mar-as-2874_quote_los-planes-que-uno-se-traza-no-son-m-s-q_478827.jpg)
