“¿Qué es el vértigo? ¿El miedo a la caída?
¿Pero por qué también nos da vértigo en un mirador provisto de una valla
segura? El vértigo es algo diferente del miedo a la caída. El vértigo
significa que la profundidad que se abre ante nosotros nos atrae, nos
seduce, despierta en nosotros el deseo de caer, del cual nos defendemos
espantados.” –
Milan Kundera [La insoportable levedad del ser]
