“We teach girls shame. “Close your legs. Cover yourself.” We make them feel as though being born female they’re already guilty of something. And so, girls grow up to be women who cannot say they have desire. They grow up to be women who silence themselves. They grow up to be women who cannot say what they truly think. And they grow up — and this is the worst thing we do to girls — they grow up to be women who have turned pretense into an art form.”

“Saruman believes it is only great power that can hold evil in check, but that is not what I have found. It is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love. Why Bilbo Baggins? Perhaps because I am afraid, and he gives me courage.”

“I am awfully greedy; I want everything from life. I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want. And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.”

“Ma che cos’è la perfezione? È il punto di fuga di una strada senza fine, è il miraggio che si sposta davanti a noi, è l’ultimo piolo di una scala circolare.
La perfezione ha a che fare con l’infinito, ma l’infinito non è solo l’infinitamente grande. C’è anche l’infinitamente piccolo. La perfezione può richiamare l’idea di movimento, ma anche l’idea di rallentamento. La ricerca della perfezione procede con un ritmo che rallenta all’infinito. È una progressione continua che tuttavia si riduce a mano a mano che si avvicina alla meta.”
