“I can change nothing in my life. Death escaped though my heart, and when I no longer held death within me, I died.”
― Mercè Rodoreda

“Bloß diese Mühsal, einzuschlafen und aufzuwachen und ein Leben zu empfinden, von dem du nicht weißt, woher du es hast, und das rasch vergeht, ohne daß du weißt, warum man es dir gab und warum man es dir nimmt. Da, nimm, das und das und das. Und jetzt genug.”
― Mercè Rodoreda, Death in Spring

“Women, they have minds, and they have souls, as well as just hearts. And they’ve got ambition, and they’ve got talent, as well as just beauty. I’m so sick of people saying that love is all a woman is fit for.”
― Louisa May Alcott, Little Women

“Let's hope I come when you are busy doing something you want to live for. Let us hope I come when you are doing something you would die for, and let's hope that if you kill yourself, you are well over 40 years old, because to kill yourself before age 40 is like murdering a stranger,”
― Salena Godden, Mrs Death Misses Death
