PUBLIC AND ETERNAL
"Those people didn't want me to study because I was poor and ugly.
Now they say to me: 'Thank you, doc.'
I just smile and think of my mom and her little holy card, and of my dad and his worn-out back. I think of the nights with mate and Don Satur, and of so many, many people who said me: 'There it is. Go for it. You can do it.'"
