Jorge Luis Borges
“So long as we are alive, we might as well be alive.”
“I cannot sleep unless I am surrounded by books.”
“The original is unfaithful to the translation.”
“I am not sure that I exist, actually. I am all the writers that I have read, all the people that I have met.”
“Time is the substance I am made of.”
“I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.”
