• Alejandro about the death of his son: "I felt the doctors didn't really talk to me in advance, and they didn't take the necessary precautions to prevent the death. The reason my kid died is very complicated. When I began to investigate it, I began to plan things -- and how I (could) damage those guys. Suddenly I realized, by a very tough process, that nothing will bring my kid back. It's a very subjective world. And I just let it go. I had to find a way to let go. If not, you begin to get crazy."
