Speed permits him to be two places at once, to belong to all the centuries without letting go of the here and now. Octavio Paz ancestorarchaicbelong share on social

My chutzpah was me singing to Mario Lanza.

I was born in Breslau on October 5th, 1930. At that time, Breslau, now called Wroclaw, belonged to Germany, and only German was spoken there. After the Second World War, Breslau became Polish, and the original German population was almost completely replaced by a Polish one. I have never visited Wroclaw after the war.
