When I have worries, fears or a love affair, I have the luck of being able to transform it into a poem.

I think the only positive thing that came from Uruguay's dictatorship was the spread of Montevideo natives around the world, and I continued writing about them from my various places of exile.

We are born sad and we die sad, but meanwhile we love bodies whose sad beauty is a miracle.

Five minutes are enough to dream a whole life, that is how relative time is.

After all Death is a Symbol that there was Life.
