> Lo que necesito es una compensación; de lo contrario, desaparece. Y no una compensación en cualquier parte, en el infinito, sino aquí abajo, una compensación que yo pueda ver. Yo he creído, y quiero ser testigo del resultado, y si entonces ya he muerto, que me resuciten.
> Seria muy triste que todo ocurriese sin que yo lo percibiera. No quiero que mi cuerpo, con sus sufrimientos y sus faltas, sirva tan solo para contribuir a la armonía futura en beneficio de no se quien. Quiero ver con mis propios ojos a la cierva durmiendo junto al león, a la victima besando a su matador. Sobre este deseo reposan todas las religiones y yo tengo fe.

> “I am just a fleeing thought in this stream of consciousness” were the last words of a dear old friend before willingly surrendering to the dark abyss of nothingness. It was a scream of a tortured soul, someone who was suffering from a violent attack. It was a Tuesday night like any other, it was late he already laying in his bed. In that moment before falling asleep while dreaming about the future, he suddenly saw the unavoidable trap that laid in front of him. He could clearly see his executioner approaching to rip apart from him what he held dear the most. In front stood an impasse, those professional goals he wanted, could no longer be. Neither would he ever feel the sweet touch of a loving hand. His destiny was set, to go quietly into the night to perish and be forgotten. He knew it well, his time had come, like many before him, but that did not make any easier to rest assure and be content of all the things he would not get to experience. Before accepting his fate, he traversed inside his room, which had become empty, distant and alienating. Digging into the recesses of this labyrinth he got to bury a drowned scream before being struck and succumbing to Morfeo for a new being to arise renewed.

> Infeliz de mí, dice uno, porque tal cosa me aconteció. No, al contrario: Dichoso yo porque habiéndome ocurrido esto, continúo sin pena alguna, ni quebrantado por lo presente ni amedrentado por lo venidero. Una semejante desgracia hubiera podido ocurrir a cualquier otro; y éste no hubiera sabido continuar, como yo, sin apenarse.
