“A arte de sobreviver não passa pelo esquecimento; consiste em aprender a viver com o que magoa e, aos poucos, ir desmontando a dor e separando os seus componentes como quem desarmadilha pacientemente uma bomba. Um dia, sobrarão apenas as peças, arquivadas em caixas.”

“Existe um rótulo complacente para tudo aquilo que queremos justificar.”
Tânia Ganho, Apneia

“A minha vida não é isto, não pode ser isto. Eu não sou isto.”
Tânia Ganho, Apneia
