Tais Laporta

“To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.”
― Arundhati Roy, The Cost of Living

“But there are certain meanings that are lost forever the moment they are explained in words.”
― Haruki Murakami, 1Q84

“Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power.”
― Oscar Wilde
