• La Montaña Mágica me influyó mucho. Es un libro que me impactó mucho. Me encantó como forma para una novela: poner a un grupo de personas en un lugar hermoso, darles a todos tuberculosis, hacer que todos se queden en un saco de dormir de piel durante varios años y ver qué pasa.

• Time is the most extraordinary gift for friendship. You'll get to eat your meals together and study together; in some cases you'll even sleep in the same room. You'll have time to waste on each other. You'll find out every single thing you have in common and still have time to catalogue all of your differences. Don't underestimate the vital necessity of friendship in your life because it is the thing that will sustain you later, when there will be considerably less time.
