“You need something like a lifeline that's connecting you to hope. So that you don't go crazy. So that you can keep breathing when one day feels like ten years.

When basic instinct takes over instead of reason, maybe you need to believe in a concept like love to bear everything.”
Keum Suk Gendry-Kim, Grass

“Por mucho que se resistiera, era una mujer y no pudo hacer nada ante la brutalidad de los hombres.”
Keum Suk Gendry-Kim, Grass

“It took me fifty-five years to return, and yet the flight was only two hours.”
Keum Suk Gendry-Kim, Grass
