“I want my daughters to be beautiful, accomplished, and good. To be admired, loved, and respected. To have a happy youth, to be well and wisely married, and to lead useful, pleasant lives, with as little care and sorrow to try them as God sees fit to send. To be loved and chosen by a good man is the best and sweetest thing which can happen to a woman, and I sincerely hope my girls may know this beautiful experience. It is natural to think of it, Meg, right to hope and wait for it, and wise to prepare for it, so that when the happy time comes, you may feel ready for the duties and worthy of the joy. My dear girls, I am ambitious for you, but not to have you make a dash in the world, marry rich men merely because they are rich, or have splendid houses, which are not homes because love is wanting. Money is a needful and precious thing, and when well used, a noble thing, but I never want you to think it is the first or only prize to strive for. I'd rather see you poor men's wives, if you were happy, beloved, contented, than queens on thrones, without self-respect and peace." "Poor”
― Louisa May Alcott, Little Women

“Vamos al gimnasio, leemos etiquetas, compramos cremas, investigamos sobre tratamientos que no podemos pagar pero que parecen el secreto del cuerpo que en teoría hay que tener. Invertimos tiempo, esfuerzo y dinero, todas cosas que no nos sobran, en cosas que nos cansan. Pero la culpa nunca se calma: siempre estás haciendo un poco menos de lo que deberías, siempre te sobran algunos kilos, granos, poros, arrugas o estrías que atacar.”
― Tamara Tenenbaum, El fin del amor: querer y coger en el siglo XXI

“Una mujer puede hacer infinitas cosas pero, si no tienen un amor, socialmente será reconocida como vacía, como sujeto incompleto.”

“¿No volverán a juntarse nunca los pedazos que nos hicieron posibles?”
