Ich schreibe, weil keiner mehr zuhört... Menschen reden nur noch aneinander vorbei. Sehen sich nicht mehr. Kein Platz für Romantik. Kein Platz für tiefe Gedanken. Alles ist gestellt. Alles auf der Überholspur in die Bedeutungslosigkeit. Niemand nimmt sich Zeit für die kleinen Dinge. Niemand lauscht mehr dem Regen in der Nacht. Höher, schneller, weiter und ignoriert das Blut an den Händen. Was hätte aus uns allen werden können? Vereint für eine gute Welt. Doch der Schein des Glänzenden hat das wahre Glück ersetzt.

The richest men are always seen as the ones with the most money in the bank. The truth is that fathers are the planters of many seeds. When the dirt of the earth buries them all, it will take the love of a forgiving man to help them grow.

¿Crees en los ángeles?–Me preguntaron un día.–¡Claro que sí!–respondí de inmediato. Lo que jamás imaginé es que ellos, los ángeles, fueran a intervenir en mi vida de la forma en que lo hicieron. Esta podría ser la reflexión de Julio, el protagonista de Diamantes en la noche.
