“We experience cannibalism <strong>on</strong> Earth every day, where <strong>the</strong> weak are crushed, where <strong>the</strong> race for pers<strong>on</strong>al<br />
interests crushes all those who happen to be in <strong>the</strong> way… The complete opposite of what we<br />
experienced up <strong>the</strong>re, where we all endeavored to do our utmost, for ourselves and o<strong>the</strong>rs, even <strong>the</strong><br />
weakest…” —Carlos Paez<br />
“The Vatican approved what we had d<strong>on</strong>e. However, if it had c<strong>on</strong>demned us, it would have had <strong>the</strong> same<br />
effect <strong>on</strong> me. I have no scruples and d<strong>on</strong>’t feel guilty about what I did. I accept it. Life—i.e. poetry, inventi<strong>on</strong>,<br />
intelligence—is more important than death. That’s my <strong>on</strong>e and <strong>on</strong>ly rule.” —Eduardo Strauch<br />
“The spirit of my dead friends isn’t inside me, no. On <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r hand, I can feel <strong>the</strong>m floating around me.<br />
In <strong>the</strong> beginning, not l<strong>on</strong>g after it happened, those who were no l<strong>on</strong>ger <strong>the</strong>re were still omnipresent. It<br />
was as though <strong>the</strong>y were shouting at us, which prevented us <str<strong>on</strong>g>from</str<strong>on</strong>g> visiting <strong>the</strong>ir parents and families,<br />
despite <strong>the</strong> fact <str<strong>on</strong>g>that</str<strong>on</strong>g> we had known each o<strong>the</strong>r for a l<strong>on</strong>g time, because we all went to <strong>the</strong> same school<br />
and lived in <strong>the</strong> same area.<br />
“Maybe in <strong>the</strong> beginning, owing to <strong>the</strong> fact <str<strong>on</strong>g>that</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>the</strong>y were too young to die, <strong>the</strong>y didn’t know what to do to<br />
be <strong>on</strong>ly pure spirits. They still wanted to be part of <strong>the</strong> land of <strong>the</strong> living. That created a c<strong>on</strong>flict between<br />
<strong>the</strong>m and us. Little by little, <strong>the</strong>y seemed to find <strong>the</strong>ir place. Or perhaps it was us <str<strong>on</strong>g>that</str<strong>on</strong>g> learnt to simply<br />
make <strong>the</strong>m invisible. Even though I feel more like <strong>the</strong>ir fa<strong>the</strong>r every day, <strong>the</strong> fa<strong>the</strong>r of all those <str<strong>on</strong>g>that</str<strong>on</strong>g> aren’t<br />
here…<br />
“I must admit <str<strong>on</strong>g>that</str<strong>on</strong>g> as <strong>the</strong> years go by, I can hear <strong>the</strong>m increasingly. They’re <strong>the</strong>re all <strong>the</strong> same, and<br />
<strong>the</strong>y’re whispering to us…” —Roberto Canessa
