Saidbook

Mechanics is a means or discipline for the realization of life, but not life itself. It ought to carry us to life itself.

— César Vallejo Aphorisms (2002)

La mecánica es un medio o disciplina para pealizar la vida, pero no es la vida misma. Esa debe llevarnos a la vida misma, que está en el juego de sentimentos o sea en la sensibilidad.
