Quotes by Alba Donati (?)

“No necesitamos entenderlo todo de la vida, pero sí tener la experiencia de la ternura, que nos atraviesa, nos induce a hacer gestos, acciones, nos guía.”

“La comunidad es una familia especial de la que uno se siente parte integrante, en la que se echa una mano a quien lo necesita y se comparten penas y alegrías.”

“From which I conclude (in case anyone had any doubt) that the publishing industry is almost entirely propped up by women, and these mothers in particular were able to pass on their love of books to their children. Who’d have thought that, in this day and age, a group of twenty-something’s first reaction upon seeing something beautiful would be to share it with their mothers?”
