“All that love, all that pain, all the stuff people feel – not just me and you, brother, but everyone, everyone who's ever walked this beautiful green planet – how can all that disappear when somebody dies? It can't disappear, it's too big. Too strong, too... permanent. So it moves to another frequency, where the human ear can't pick up.”

“Nunca abandonei aquele poeta, ainda o visito no parque. Não sei quantas pessoas ainda visitam os seus poetas abandonados, mas se procurarem bem, há muitos parques cheios deles, dentro e fora de nós. O meu, que comprei quando tinha treze ou catorze anos, ainda o visito. Sentamo-nos os dois e dizemos inutilidades. Algumas dessas inutilidades até são poemas. Ele olha para mim com lágrimas nos olhos (deixei de contabilizar estas coisas), eu fico com uma metáfora na garganta, abraço-o, e somos felizes durante uns segundos, ou melhor, durante eternidades.”

“Sometimes just being yourself is the radical act. When you occupy space in systems that weren't built for you, your authenticity is activism”
