A moment of peace where everything was understood, where everything made sense, although it could not be explained in words, because there was no language that could name it.
by Laura Esquivel
(0 Reviews)

The quote from Laura Esquivel's "Malinche" captures an emotional experience of profound understanding that transcends verbal expression. It reflects a moment in life where clarity and peace envelop the individual, providing a sense of wholeness and connectivity to the universe. Despite the clarity of the experience, the limitations of language prevent it from being fully articulated, emphasizing the complexity of human feelings and insights that go beyond mere words.

This moment signifies a deep internal realization, suggesting that some experiences are so rich and nuanced that they evade precise explanation. Esquivel's writing often delves into themes of cultural identity and personal transformation, highlighting how moments of deep connection and understanding can reshape one's perspective. The quote invites readers to ponder the significance of these ineffable experiences in their own lives.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
