Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.
Jorge Luis BorgesEvery writer creates his own precursors. His work modifies our conception of the past, as it will modify the future.
Jorge Luis BorgesMy father gave me free run of his library. When I think of my boyhood, I think in terms of the books I read.
