“How could I explain that my greatest fear is precisely of: being? and yet there is no other way. How can I explain that my greatest fear is living whatever comes? how to explain that I can’t stand seeing, just because life isn’t what I thought but something else — as if I knew what! Why is seeing such disorganization?”
― Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G.H.

“Sometimes — sometimes we ourselves manifest the inexpressive — one does that in art”
― Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G.H.

“I saw, and was frightened by the brute truth of a world whose greatest horror is that it is so alive that, in admitting I’m as alive as it is — and my worst discovery is that I’m as alive as it is — I shall have to heighten my consciousness of exterior life until it becomes a crime against my personal life.”
― Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G.H.
