“Me doy cuenta que estoy aprendiendo a criticar con sorna (diccionario) y trataré de frenar esta modalidad porque afea el alma y arruga la frente.”
Aurora Venturini

“A veces pienso que somos un sueño o pesadilla cumplida día a día que en cualquier momento ya no será, ya no aparecerá en la pantalla del alma para atormentarnos.”
Aurora Venturini

“I asked the psychologist, a woman with hair on her lip and a monobrow, what emotional meant. She answered that it had to do with your soul, but I was too young to understand. Still I guessed that a soul was like a white sheet inside our bodies and when it got stained it made people stupid, like Betina and a little like me.”
Aurora Venturini, Cousins
