Quotes by Valentina Maini (?)

“Io ho sette ferite" mi aveva detto la signorina Moraza, "come le sette vite dei gatti". Vivere è esplorare la ferita. Non esiste un altro modo di vivere. Non provate a convincermi che esiste. La ferita è bella. La cicatrice necessaria. Io sono una ferita aperta. Ovale è la casa e anche la crepa.”
― Valentina Maini, La mischia
