TURTLES AND CRONOPIOS
Now it happens that turtles
are great speed enthusiasts, with is natural.
The speranzas know that and don't bother about it.
The famas know it, and make fun of it.
The cronopios know it, and each time they meet a turle, they haul out the box of
colored chalkss, and on the rounded blackboard of the turtle's shell
they draw a swallow.
Julio Cortázar
