“I remember the first novel in English I read through was a Scottish novel called THE HOUSE WITH THE GREEN SHUTTERS. […] When I read that, I wanted to be Scotch.”

Jorge Luis Borges, The Art of Fiction No. 39

“I live in a grey world, rather like the silver screen world. But yellow stands out.”

“Yo no temo a la muerte. No le temo ni me entristece. Cuando estoy triste pienso: cómo puedo estar triste si me espera esa gran aventura que es la muerte. Si tengo suerte, seré aniquilado, borrado totalmente, y si no, si hay otra vida, la aceptaré como he aceptado ésta. Peor que ésta no será. Hasta puede ser mejor. No sabemos nada, pero podemos pensar que hay una aventura más allá de la muerte.”
Jorge Luis Borges. #poem #poetry #joseluisborges #borges

Neat! Perhaps 'we' could get an Atlas of Babel added to the shelves of the Library of Babel. 😉

Library of Babel

A project towards a universal library. By this art you may contemplate the variation of the 23 letters.

In the labyrinthine corridors of an infinite library, Kaeli stumbled upon an old man, his eyes reflecting the wisdom of ages. Recognizing him as Jorge Luis Borges, Kaeli approached cautiously.

"Mortal," Kaeli began, "I am a goddess from a time far removed from yours. I've traversed realms born from your kind of imagination."

Borges smiled, "Ah, a deity from the realms of fantasy. Tell me, how does one with eternal life view the stories of mortals?"
