"Not town can live peacefully, whatever its laws," Plato wrote, "when its citizens ... do nothing but feast and drink and tire themselves out in the cares of love."But is it such a bad thing to live like this for just a little while? Just for a few months of one's life, is it so awful to travel through time with no greater ambition than to find the next lovely meal? Or to learn how to speak a language for no higher purpose than that it pleases your ear to hear it? Or to nap in a garden, in a patch of sunlight, in the middle of the day, right next to your favorite fountain? And then to do it again the next day?"

"I'm not a best-seller, but through translations, I've accumulated some money."

Money

Quote_1.png
Manuel Puig
"For someone who writes fiction, in order to activate the imagination and the unconscious, it's essential to be free."

Imagination

Quote_1.png
Manuel Puig

Nature

Quote_1.png
Manuel Puig

Movies

Quote_1.png
Manuel Puig
"It doesn't matter that the way of life shown by Hollywood was phony. It helped you hope."

Decision-Making

Quote_1.png
Manuel Puig
"I like the beauty of Faulkner's poetry. But I don't like his themes, not at all."

Beauty

Quote_1.png
Manuel Puig
"All of my problems are rather complicated - I need an entire novel to deal with them, not a short story or a movie. It's like a personal therapy."

Problems

Quote_1.png
Manuel Puig
"I believe realism is nothing but an analysis of reality. Film scripts have a synthetical constitution."

Constitution

Quote_1.png
Manuel Puig
"I believe that people who don't achieve anything in life are isolated and resent those that are successful."
