Quiroga - 102

 THE WORKS SPEAK

Philosophizing by quoting indicates that you borrow what others once thought, because it seems to you that their words summarize your feelings and aspirations and you identify with the ideas presented, however, the inevitable day arrives when quoting can no longer save you, because you are not the others who thought before you, and the reality that now unfolds before you your ancestors could not imagine, besides, as always, the human being that you are is found in the center of the labyrinth that your own words plot.

The words that shape your destiny are yours, not those of others.

Then and only then do you discover that no matter how much you have borrowed concepts and words from others, because you identify with them, in practice it is the words that emerge from your gut and from your heart that shape the structure of your life, and that the words quoted only have strength if they are practiced because, after all, the existence of a human being is not measured by any other ruler than that of what one does with everything one thinks, feels and identifies.

The works reveal your essence, speak about you and speak for themselves, even if they contradict the quotes you make.
