“Which one is real?”

Ayer alguien me hizo recordar un libro que había leído, repitiendome casi literalmente su comienzo. La manía, o sana costumbre, de marcar partes de los libros, hizo que inmediatamente viniese a mi cabeza ese parrafo, ya que lo había señalado.

“In other words I am three. One man stands forever in the midle, unconcerned, unmoved, watching, waiting to be allowed to express what he sees to the other two. The second man is like a frightened animal that attacks for fear of being attacked. Then there`s an over-loving gentle person who lets people into the uttermost sacred temple of his being and he`ll take insults and be trusting and sign contracts without reading them and get talked down to working cheap or for nothing, and when he realizes what`s been done to him he feels like killing and destroying everything around him including himself for being so stupid. But he can`t - he goes back inside himself”.

“Which one is real?”
“They`re all real.”

Mingus, C. (2005). Beneath the Underdog. Edinburgh: Canongate
