Quotes About Recklessness

México, país civilizado, sólo matan lo preciso. Aquí no. Ve el cafre que maneja a un peatón cruzando la calle, y en vez de disminuir la velocidad acelera. Salta la liebre porque salta o se va a rendirle cuentas a Dios. Por eso viejos aquí casi no hay. En Colombia los viejos mueren jóvenes.
~ Fernando Vallejo

I talk of those incidents [with Bonnie and Clyde] as if I were not a part of any of it, like a character in a book I once read. It's the only way I keep from going crazy.
