Ramón Gómez de la Serna

Ramón Gómez de la Serna (1888-1963), Spanish writer, dramatist and avant-garde agitator.

Ramón Gómez de la Serna was especially known for "Greguerías" - a short form of poetry that roughly corresponds to the one-liner in comedy. The Gregueria is especially able to grant a new and often humorous perspective.

Some sample Greguerias: El par de huevos que nos tomamos parece que son gemelos, y no son ni primos terceros. The pair of eggs we got look like identical twins, and they're not even third cousins.

Lo más importante de la vida es no haber muerto. The most important thing in life is not having died.
