Juan Rulfo said this quote

Cada suspiro es como un sorbo de vida del que uno se deshace.

~ Juan Rulfo

Sólo yo entiendo lo lejos que está el cielo de nosotros; pero conozco cómo acortar las veredas. Todo consiste en morir, Dios mediante, cuando uno quiera y no cuando Él lo disponga. O, si tú quieres, forzarlo a disponer antes de tiempo.

~ Juan Rulfo

There you'll find the place I love most in the world. The place where I grew thin from dreaming. My village, rising from the plain. Shaded with trees and leaves like a piggy bank filled with memories. You'll see why a person would want to live there forever. Dawn, morning, mid-day, night: all the same, except for the changes in the air. The air changes the color of things there. And life whirs by as quiet as a murmur...the pure murmuring of life.

~ Juan Rulfo

Nothing can last forever. There isn't any memory, no matter how intense, that doesn't fade out at last.

~ Juan Rulfo
