“No te intereses por nadie, Rafael; es mejor ser cruel con los demás que no tener que sufrir después calvario, pasión y muerte.”
Ian Gibson, Lorca y el mundo gay

“«No hay tal crudeza —recalcaâ€�. So pena que se llame así a trasplantar la vida como es. Las gentes a quienes espanta mi realidad son fariseos que viven, sin asustarse, la misma realidad de mi teatro.»”
Ian Gibson, Lorca y el mundo gay

“Cuando siento la comezón de pisar Francia, cruzo la frontera, pido una cerveza o un vino y me lo dan sin tapa, tengo ganas de volver enseguida a casa.”
Ian Gibson, Aventuras ibéricas
