Roberto Bolano Quotes
Sometimes I Thought It Was A Good Thing That He Had Gone Blind, Because That Way He Would Never See Me, Never See My Face, Never See The Look On My Face When I Was With Him, Which Wasn't The Look Of A Prostitute Or A Thief Or A Spy, But An Expectant Look, The Look Of Someone Hoping For Anything And Everything, From A Kind Word To A Life-changing Declaration.
There Weren't Many Kind Words, Because Maciste Didn't Talk Much, But There Were Kind Gestures. And There Were No Life-changing Declarations, Or At Least None I Recognized At The Time, Though Since Then I've Come To Remember Each Of Maciste's Words As A Key Or A Dark Bridge That Surely Could Have Led Me Elsewhere, As If He Were A Fortune-telling Machine Designed Exclusively For Me, Which I Know Isn't True, Though Sometimes I Like To Think So, Not Often, Because I Don't Lie To Myself The Way I Used To, But Every Once In A While.
