“Lei aveva lasciato il Vietnam, ma il Vietnam non aveva lasciato lei; quel paese le era rimasto dentro come un vaso di Pandora da cui non osava separarsi, pur sapendo che sarebbe stato straziante, e pericoloso, sollevarne il coperchio. Mono no aware, dicono i giapponesi per il indicare la malinconia delle cose”
Minh Tran Huy, La Princesse et le Pêcheur

Christopher G. Moore
“Thais have a saying about a frog living inside a coconut shell. The frog believes that the world inside the shell is the whole universe. In the private investigation business, Vincent Calvino had clients who like the frog. What they saw from inside their shell blinded them, made them unable to solve a problem. So they hired Calvino. He knew the drill. Shells offered comfort and security. Leaving could be a dangerous business.”
Christopher G. Moore, The Risk of Infidelity Index: A Vincent Calvino Crime Novel
