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

“Io sono un alpino e lo sarò sempre, anche se non uscirò mai più con i miei ragazzi di pattuglia e non andrò in avamposto sperduto affacciato sul nulla. Gli alpini stanno in trincea e sotto il fuoco. Gli alpini costruiscono strade e scavano le macerie e raccolgono persino la spazzatura. Non servono i politici, ma l'Italia. Non hanno segreti e agiscono alla luce del sole. Portano il loro passato sull'uniforme e non sono solo nastrini o distintivi: è la storia di ognuno e chiunque può leggerla. Portano il nome cucito sulla divisa, sulla sinistra, dalla parte del cuore.”
― Melania G. Mazzucco
