More From Carlos Fuentes
- "One puts off the biography like you put off death. To write an autobiography is to etch the words on your own gravestone."
- "You have an absolute freedom in Mexican writing today in which you don’t necessarily have to deal with the Mexican identity. You know why? Because we have an identity… We know who we are. We know what it means to be a Mexican."
- "The United States has written the white history of the United States. It now needs to write the black, Latino, Indian, Asian and Caribbean history of the United States."
More In Family
- "A family with the wrong members in control; that, perhaps, is as near as one can come to describing England in a phrase."― George Orwell
- "For all of those willing to help me start a family, I am flattered. I will let you know when I need your help."― Paula Abdul
- "Everyone has a responsibility towards this larger family of man, but especially if you’re privileged, that increases your responsibility."― Susan Sarandon
