    The poet begins where the man ends. The man’s lot is to live his human life, the poet’s to invent what is nonexistent.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)

    When one of us dies of cancer, loses her mind, or commits suicide, we must not blame her for her inability to survive an ongoing political mechanism bent on the destruction of that human being. Sanity remains defined simply by the ability to cope with insane conditions.
