“It is easy to love people in memory; the hard thing is to love them when they are there in front of you.”
― John Updike, My Father's Tears and Other Stories

“Zézim, ninguém te ensinará os caminhos. Ninguém me ensinará os caminhos. Ninguém nunca me ensinou caminho nenhum, nem a você, suspeito. Avanço às cegas. Não há caminhos a serem ensinados, nem aprendidos. Na verdade, não há caminhos.”
― Caio Fernando Abreu, Morangos mofados

“WITCHES TAKE THEIR NAMES FROM PLACES, for places are what give them their strength. The place need not be beautiful, or habitable, or even green. Sand and salt, so much the better. Scrub pine, plumberry, and brambles, better still. From every bitter thing, after all, something hardy will surely grow. From every difficulty, the seed that’s sewn is that much stronger. Ruin is the milk all witches must drink; it’s the lesson they learn and the diet they’re fed upon.”
― Alice Hoffman, Blackbird House

“I’ve survived a lot of things, and I’ll probably survive this.”
― J.D. Salinger
