They should call the good man an ass! They should call the bad ass a man!

‪Platero and I‬ (1917)

He is as loving and tender as a child, but strong and sturdy as a rock.

‪Platero and I‬ (1917)

A permanent state of transition is man's most noble condition.

Transition is a complete present which unites the past and the future in a momentary progressive ecstasy, a progressive eternity, a true eternity of eternities, eternal moments.
