Maria Teresa de Mascarenhas Horta Barros was a Portuguese feminist poet, journalist and activist. She is one of the authors of the book Novas Cartas Portuguesas (New Portuguese Letters), together with Maria Isabel Barreno and Maria Velho da Costa. The authors, known as the "Three Marias," were arrested, jailed and prosecuted under Portuguese censorship laws in 1972, during the last years of the Estado Novo dictatorship. The book and their trial inspired protests in Portugal and attracted international attention from European and American women's liberation groups in the years leading up to the Carnation Revolution.

Quotes by Maria Teresa Horta (?)

“De mim, afinal, o que quereis? Porque eu, senhor poeta, de mim pretendo tudo.”
― Maria Teresa Horta, As Luzes de Leonor

“A teimar eu na liberdade e em privilegiar o pensamento e os versos, na tentativa de dominar e comandar o corpo que inutilmente me esforço por enganar nas suas exigências naturais, ao reconhecer o grande sossego que a frieza e a razão sempre trazem consigo, em detrimento do meu coração que na inquietude se esmera.”
― Maria Teresa Horta, As Luzes de Leonor

“Todo o colo
me faz lembrar
as tuas pernas

O côncavo macio
das tuas coxas

Onde ainda hoje
eu poderia
procurar o sono e o susto”
― Maria Teresa Horta, Poesia Reunida
