The directions are reversed in the Southern Hemisphere
~ Michael Koryta
Death does not come when the body is too exausted to live.Death comes because the brilliance inside of us can only be contained for so long.We do not die.We pass on.Pass on the life burning through our throats.When you leave me, I will not cry for you.I will run into the strongest wind I can find and welcome you home.

Fick's eyes refocused, blinking from the cold wind of the incoming storm on his leathery face, he realized he was half-listening to some radio traffic. Something about some junior enlisted personnel caught fucking in the woods. Jesus Christ in an Alligator Fuckhouse, he thought, coming back from his unaccustomed philosophical maundering. What kind of goat-fellating third-world communist cock-suck military are they running around here?
~ Michael Stephen Fuchs
You cannot kill a breeze, a wind, a fragrance; you cannot kill a dream or an ambition.

I became aware of a very peaceful atmosphere, which was not what I expected. I do not claim to be psychic, but I expected to pick up a trace of violence there. There was nothing, just the wind rustling the leaves, desolation and peace. All the action was long past and I could not recover any of it.

The grass grows over the graves, time overgrows the pain. The wind blew away the traces of those who had departed; time blows away the bloody pain and the memory of those who did not live to see their dear ones again—and will not live, for brief is human life, and not for long is any of us granted to tread the grass.
~ Mikhail Sholokhov
The wind was against them now, and Piglet's ears streamed behind him like banners as he fought his way along, and it seemed hours before he got them into the shelter of the Hundred Acre Wood and they stood up straight again, to listen, a little nervously, to the roaring of the gale among the treetops. 'Supposing a tree fell down, Pooh, when we were underneath it?' 'Supposing it didn't,' said Pooh after careful thought.

Potser el silenci per descobrir nous ritmes, potser la música per fer molt més intensos els ritmes del silenci. Els fulls dels llibres com un espai molt íntim que mai refusa. Del vent me'n quedo la inquietud que vibra a cada fulla. Pledejo encara, tossut i temerari, amb vells dimonis; un ritme greu compassa raonaments i dubtes. Amb les mancances m'he fet una cuirassa per sobreviure.
~ Unknown
He heard someone playing an Andalusian guitar, the drumming of a thousand bat wings inside a dark cave. He heard an ancient lyre, the leaf of autumn falling to the ground, someone whispering "I love you". He heard the sound of winf, a beating heart, and a mother saying good night to her child.
~ Unknown

~ Miroslav Krleža
