"Neither did Audrey Hepburn,”

“Aquele equilíbrio entre tranquilidade e aventura o fazia se sentir bem.
Uma onda se aproximando e crescendo na sua frente, como um animal selvagem. Um belo animal, forte, potente. Poderia aplicar uma surra nele, até matá-lo, ou ele poderia domar o animal. Uma vez domado, poderia ser calmo. Quando dropou uma onda pela primeira vez, Quinto Anfossi não queria fazer manobras extremas, apenas queria deslizar
pela onda, traçando uma linha. Fazer curvas longas e tranquilas. Para atingir a tranquilidade, porém, precisava domar aquele animal.”
