“No meio desta gente estão seis suicidas: por dívidas, por deceção amorosa e porque não fazem carreira. Fora os que acabam tísicos, com pneumonias, porque se esqueceram das galochas e do guarda-chuva. A vida é um balde de lixo espalhado ao acaso pelo chão e assim parece inofensiva na face da terra.

― Agustina Bessa-Luís, Fanny Owen
