The Tradition


"No one behind, no one ahead.
The path the ancients cleared has closed.
And the other path, everyone's path, easy and wide, goes nowhere.
I am alone and find my way."
OCTAVIO PAZ


Octavio Paz was awarded the 1990 Nobel Prize in Literature "for impassioned writing with wide horizons, characterized by sensuous intelligence and humanistic integrity."
