Buchi Emecheta
“É assim até hoje na Nigéria: quando você perde seu pai, você perdeu ambos os pais. A mãe é apenas uma mulher, e as mulheres devem ser desprovidas de ossos. Uma família sem pai é uma família sem cabeça, uma família sem abrigo, uma família sem pais; de fato, uma família não existente. Essas tradições não mudam muito.”

Enfermera Saturada, El silencio de los goteros

Eduardo Sacheri, Lo mucho que te amé

Stephen  King
“The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them - words shrink things that seem limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out.”
Stephen King, The Body

“Shaving my head was a way of saying to the world: Fuck you. You want me to be pretty for you? Fuck you. You want me to be good for you? Fuck you. You want me to be your dream girl? Fuck you. I’d been the good girl for years. I’d smiled politely while TV show hosts leered at my breasts, while American parents said I was destroying their children by wearing a crop top, while executives patted my hand condescendingly and second-”
