Niklas quoted Surviving the 21st Century by Noam Chomsky
Saúl Alvidrez: Pepe, what is love?
José Mujica: Love? At my age it is my habits and solace. Love has ages. It is volcanic when we are young, and at my age it's sweet habits. Getting used to everyday things that seem unimportant but that in the end are the only important ones.
Saúl Alvídrez: Professor Chomsky, how do you define love?
Noam Chomsky: Love is timeless. If we go back to Homer, the Greeks went to war because Helen was abducted. Penelope then wove for ten years as a way of delaying her suitors as she waited for Odysseus to return. Sometimes you can be waiting without knowing you are waiting. I waited for many years before I met my wife, Valeria, and I have discovered a new kind of love.
Saúl Alvídrez: You and Valeria have been together since 2014?
Valeria Wasserman Chomsky: Since 2013.
Noam Chomsky: It proves you can find love at eighty-seven.
Valeria Wasserman Chomsky: You were eighty-four!
