“What words say does not last. The words last. Because words are always the same, and what they say is never the same.”

Antonio Porchia (1885–1968) Italian Argentinian poet

Lo que dicen las palabras no dura. Duran las palabres. Porque las palabras son siempre las mismas y lo que dicen no es nunca lo mismo.
Voces (1943)
