Roberto Arlt famous quotes

Last updated: Sep 5, 2024

The problem is, you can't tell people these things. They'll think you're crazy. And I say to myself: What can I do with this life inside me?

You have to play at being pirates ... to build cities of marble ... to laugh ... to set off firecrackers
-- Roberto Arlt

Because of a friend, life is a little stronger, fuller, more gracious thing for the friend's existence, whether he be near or far.
