To speak of God, to think of God, is in every respect to show what one is made of. I have always wagered against God and I regard the little that I have won in this world as simply the outcome of this bet. However paltry may have been the stake (my life) I am conscious of having won to the full. Everything that is doddering, squint-eyed, vile, polluted and grotesque is summoned up for me in that one word: God!

    hablar de dios, pensar en dios, es en todos los aspectos mostrar de qué está hecho uno. Siempre he apostado contra dios y considero que lo poco que he ganado en este mundo es simplemente el resultado de esta apuesta. por insignificante que haya sido la apuesta (mi vida), soy consciente de haber ganado al máximo. todo lo que es vacilante, entrecerrado, vil, contaminado y grotesco me es convocado en una sola palabra: ¡Dios!
