“Diventare. Era un verbo che mi aveva sempre ossessionata, ma me ne accorsi per la prima volta solo in quella circostanza. Io volevo diventare, anche se non avevo mai saputo cosa. Ed ero diventata, questo era certo, ma senza un oggetto, senza una vera passione, senza un’ambizione determinata. Ero voluta diventare qualcosa – ecco il punto – solo perché temevo che Lila diventasse chissà chi e io restassi indietro. Il mio diventare era diventare dentro la sua scia. Dovevo ricominciare a diventare, ma per me, da adulta, fuori di lei.”

“Of course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence.”
