"Abstention means you stayed at home or went to the beach. By casting a blank vote, you're saying you..." — Jose Saramago
Abstention means you stayed at home or went to the beach. By casting a blank vote, you're saying you have a political conscience but you don't agree with any of the existing parties.

View AllA writer's definitive death is when no one reads his books anymore. That's the final death.— Jose Saramago
When I am occupied with a work that requires continuity - a novel, for example - I write every day.— Jose Saramago
For me, writing is a job. I do not separate the work from the act of writing like two things that have nothing to do with each other. I arrange words one after another, or one in front of another, to tell a story, to say something that I consider important or useful, or at least important or useful to me.— Jose Saramago
