«The language – Castilian, Spanish – becomes for us like a liquor that we savor, and which we can no longer do without. Dispense in the rehearsal, in search of all its hiding places, all its possibilities, all its purities. We are already, with so much drinking of this liquor, drunk on the language ». – José Martínez Ruiz (Azorín)
