Betty Mahmoody
“Sé que mi familia es así pero este silencio me pesa. Tengo la impresión de tener millones de cosas que decir que, en el fondo, no interesan a nadie. Me viene a la memoria lo que decían los supervivientes de los campos de la última guerra al volver a su hogar: las pesadillas no se cuentan. Los demás no imaginan este género de pesadillas. Se instala, entre ellos y nosotras, una especie de statu quo que parece decir: ‘Estás aquí, se acabó, no hablemos más de ello.”
Betty Mahmoody, For the Love of a Child

K.  Ritz
“Mead.
O sweet elixir,
Ye bless the lips and steal the wits.
 ”
K. Ritz, Sheever's Journal, Diary of a Poison Master

“Besides, my life is a catastrophe. It's a catastrophe to be without a voice.”
E.B. White, The Trumpet of the Swan

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“I felt emotions of gentleness and pleasure, that had long appeared dead, revive within me. Half surprised by the novelty of these sensations, I allowed myself to be borne away by them, and forgetting my solitude and deformity, dared to be happy. Soft tears again bedewed my cheeks, and I even raised my humid eyes with thankfulness towards the blessed sun, which bestowed such joy upon me.”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
