Southern Patagonia + Buenos Aires

• The scene, however, was novel, and a little danger, like salt to meat, gave it a relish. [...] I reached the place of our bivouac by sunset, and drinking much mate, and smoking several cigaritos, soon made up my bed for the night. The wind was very strong and cold, but I never slept more comfortably.
  – From VOYAGE OF THE BEAGLE, Charles Darwin

Cuba

• I will not paint for you ... with the dry and meager accounts of the geographers, nor with the fantastical and affected pretentiousness of the pseudo-romantics, but with its very colors, with the simplicity and clarity that are appropriate in speaking of this land that is so sublime and so terrible, so rich and so miserly ...
  – Palacio de Guash
• True, [it] was disheveled and shabby, but in the manner of a beautiful woman who had let herself go.

• I drink to our demolished house,
  To all this wickedness,
  To you, our loneliness together,
  I raise my glass
