It might become harmful if it is not already.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">There is a point where all you get from books is knowledge, but knowledge does not pay nor justify corrosion.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Knowing something does not confirm what you know or what you knew, but what you ignore. Each new discovery is a confirmation of things that are not discovered, and, worse, of the main enigma, the puzzle you will never find out.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Writing is late in my life but not reading. Logic says that literature is nonsense. And the logic is right.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">What I&#8217;ve been losing is intuition. However, if I had not read, I would not have known there was something in me that could be named that way.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Intuition is not a talent, of course, is a property. The intuition that I had and have is that I love literature.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I am not a humanist, in the uplifting sense of the term; I&#8217;m not, no matter how hard I try.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I do not believe in literature because it is a sample of our strength as a species, but because it is a sign of our weakness, our wonderful weakness.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I believe in literature because it is the recognition of our limitation and the biggest greatness of man lies precisely in the way he assumes his condition and the way he works within the floodgates of his logic.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I do not believe in writers, easily recognizable, that proclaim the greatness of the word without having repaired before in its futility.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I do not think you can love literature without having despised it at least for a moment, a disregard we did not enhance, but that is earned and that we must honestly recognize.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Love for literature does not arise from a birth, but from a thoughtful calculation of its possibilities and purposes, even if that calculation owns us.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Love for literature comes from fully understanding of its purpose, its inevitability as a method.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Literature does have a purpose and a method, and both are unavoidable and urgent.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wittgenstein said, and I fear that rightly, that it only should be taught the laws of science, as accurate as possible.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wittgenstein said that the internal structure of language, and therefore the internal structure of the world, can not be said, just displayed.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The internal structure of language can not be expressed through language and the internal structure of the world can not be said within the world.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">You must always start from a supposition; there is always something you can not prove.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">These truths tie you, they are so powerful and inexcusable than getting around them or ignore them, not assuming them as a starting point, results in a useless profusion of words, a profusion that besides increasing chaos, believes to fulfill a sacred function.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">But I knew all that even before learning it, even before reading Wittgenstein.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is enough to start again, to pay with dignity the debt with solipsism and stillness, because there is something, an infinite point that escapes logic.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wittgenstein knew it, so he says that the internal structure of language may be shown.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Literature is the only thing that can show the internal structure of language, but must necessarily do it as if it were devoted to something else.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hitting bottom, there is something we can not forget. Literature has been put in a place where there should be only silence.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Therefore, literature has to be as powerful as silence, has to replace it, has to hit as silence hits, otherwise it is not literature.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">When I thought I was prepared, I discovered that just such preparation was its purpose.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">All you I can say hereafter, is already contained or explained in a past event.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Everything I can not say is also contained in what it did not happen.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I think books have spoiled my innocence, but innocence is volatile, if it had not ruined by books, people would have do it, which is more serious.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I can not find myself nor define me out off books, because I consider the books more important than people, and the sacred oath I have made them is more unbreakable than Homeland or than the speech of any president .<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is truly not a sacred oath; it is a contract without termination clauses.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">A reader of OnCuba asks me why I have not written a book and I answer myself: if only he knew.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">What I want to say I told it once, but was erased.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was twelve and I had read \u00a8A story about a real man\u00a8, a Soviet novel based on a war hero, a pilot who lost both legs and crawls himself for eighteen days through the Russian snow.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The pilot, with prosthesis, flies again. However, I was not interested in the heroism that led him to become a myth.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was interested in the heroism that took him to survive.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I remember: I was twelve; I could not know what was going to happen to me eleven years later, nor know I already knew.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">My family went to Varadero. I laid down on an edge of the beach and crawled along forty yards of sand, from 12:05 until 12:09 or so, to understand from my body and my possibilities what the Soviet pilot had felt.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">My family really enjoyed when I explained my intentions. Today I do not explain anything, and my family looks at me with circumspect face, but I love them as if they were literature.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">There is mutilation in my idea of \u200b\u200bfamily, and in my idea of literature .<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">What I want to say was erased by the passage of other people over the sand, men in bathing suits and women in towels, all ready to enjoy the water of Varadero and the summer sun.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Maybe I did not write anything in the sand, but perhaps the sand wrote something on my skin.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">If so, I&#8217;m saved. That is what I&#8217;m trying to figure out; if swimmers took my truth, or if the truth still belongs to me.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I would like the truth to be in me, I pray for that.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">A loss would hurt me so much.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">What I want to say it can be told if I shut up, but if I do it, I won\u2019t know who I am, because, as Wittgenstein proved, I myself could not recognize my internal structure, the substance of which I am composed .<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Only readers might know it and that is why I write, for readers to translate me.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Just as I have to delve into world issues, readers must delve into me.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I write what they want to read, and then they read what I have wanted to write.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">My literature is a unicorn, but I want him to leave and he does it.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is not a wild unicorn, but docile , that only grazes before the race in the grass of my mind, and erodes the ground with their hooves.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">One more thing.
