This is no computer simulation; definitely not a Disney movie prop! 

In Germany, the Library of Abbey of Saint Peter monastery has the idyllic atmosphere. Built using racoco style, it houses hundreds of old books in hardbound, paintings, and sculptures which guard this magnificent part of the monastery.

On this day in 1911, Machu Picchu, the ancient Inca city in Peru was “discovered” by Yale historian and archeologist Hiram Bingham when he ascended to the ancient site on July 24, 1911—led by a local farmer, Melchor Arteaga, and a young boy named Pablito. 37 years later, LIFE ran a story in brilliant color about THE ANDES shot by photographer Dmitri Kessel. This image of Machu Picchu ran with the following caption: “Inca ruins at Machu Picchu in Peru are clustered beneath the wild crags of the Andes. Although 400 years have elapsed since the Inca civilization was smashed by Spain, the massive, skillfully made walls are partially intact.” (Dmitri Kessel—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #thisweekinLIFE #Peru #MachuPicchu

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where, I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I don’t know any other way of loving.

Algo notable es el valor que aquella gente daba a las palabras. De ninguna manera eran un arma para justificar los hechos. Hoy todas las interpretaciones son válidas y las palabras sirven más para descargarnos de nuestros actos que para responder por ellos.

—Ernesto Sábato (La Resistencia)
