Gabriel Garcia Marquez, author of one of the best books ever written (100 years of solitude) , has published an article in the Cuban newspaper Gramma, excerpted in today's excellent edition of the (London) Guardian. Final sentence of excerpt : "On seeing him overburdened with the weight of so many distant destinies, I asked him what it was that he most wished to do in the world, and he immediately answered me : "Stand on a corner."

i take off my hat to both of them and to the Guardian which today especially publishes also the o t h e r points of view.
