“Uno de los mitos románticos más potentes de nuestra cultura patriarcal es la idea de que la magia del amor nos cambia la vida, nos salva de todos los males y nos soluciona todos los problemas. El amor convierte a los sapos asquerosos en príncipes azules, deshace el hechizo de las bellas durmientes, rescata de su encierro a las muchachas, transforma a la criada que limpia chimeneas en una princesa”
― Coral Herrera Gómez, Mujeres que ya no sufren por amor: Transformando el mito romántico

― Liu Cixin, Mountain

“The psychologist Dan Kiley, in 1983, coined the Peter Pan Syndrome.  He wrote in his book, that for every Peter Pan there is a Wendy as his shadow.  Kiley figured there was a responsible motherly figure, Wendy, that would be the nurturing caregiver.  Peter would be the wounded boy in need of the kind, warming, and responsible Wendy.”

“I live in a world where not being molested as a child is considered luck.”
― Mindy McGinnis, The Female of the Species
