He had already understood that he would never leave that room, for it
was foreseen that the city of mirrors (or mirages) would be wiped out by
the wind and exiled from the memory of men at the precise moment when
Aureliano Babilonia would finish deciphering the parchments, and that
everything written on them was unrepeatable since time immemorial and
forever more, because races condemned to one hundred years of solitude
did not have a second opportunity on earth.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
