"If they give you ruled paper,
write the other way."
— Juan Ramón Jiménez

FAHRENHEIT 451:
the temperature at which
book-paper catches fire and burns

It was a pleasure to burn.

(Italian)
Era una gioia appiccare il fuoco.

(Spanish)
Constituía un placer especial ver las cosas consumidas, ver los objetos ennegrecidos y cambiados.

The autumn leaves blew over the moonlit pavement in such a way as to
make the girl who was moving there seem fixed to a sliding walk,
letting the motion of the wind and the leaves carry her forward.

He almost thought he heard the motion of her hands as she walked, and
the infinitely small sound now, the white stir of her face turning when
she discovered she was a moment away from a man who stood in the middle
of the pavement waiting.

"Isn't this a nice time of night to walk? I like to smell things and
look at things, and sometimes stay up all night, walking, and watch the
sun rise."

There must be something in books, things we can't imagine, to make a
woman stay in a burning house; there must be something there. You don't
stay for nothing.

When we reach the city.

(Italian)
Quando saremo giunti alla Città.

(Spanish)
"Cuando alcancemos la ciudad."
