Quotes by Melania G. Mazzucco

“Tu sai come trasformare la paura in energia .... Sei in grado di affrontare anche un uomo senza ombra. Perché più o meno è questo che mi è successo. Non ho consistenza, sono vuoto, non ho niente dentro di me.”
― Melania G. Mazzucco, Limbo

“La gente parla solo per dar fiato alla lingua, e lei non ha più voglia di perdere tempo con le sciocchezze. Si è sottoposta a una terapia di disintossicazione dalle cose superflue. Mese dopo mese le cose importanti si sono rivelate sempre meno. Alla fine sono rimaste solo la salute, la libertà, la vita.”
― Melania G. Mazzucco

“Forse la pazzia non è l'ebetudine, non è il monologare franto e farneticante dei disperati che si aggirano sui marciapiedi delle stazioni, è la diversità che separa dagli altri, dalle altre, è la speranza, il sogno, quasi la pretesa di avere un destino.
Di non essere un ombra senza storia, un fantasma che scivola sul mondo senza lasciare un impronta, e di voler fare qualcosa di importante nella vita.”
― Melania G. Mazzucco, Limbo
