“—Leo, amar es un verbo, no un sustantivo. No es algo que se establezca de una vez para siempre, sino que evoluciona, crece, sube, baja, se hunde, como los ríos ocultos en el corazón de la tierra, que sin embargo nunca interrumpen su curso hacia el mar. A veces dejan la tierra seca, pero discurren por debajo, en las cavidades oscuras, o ascienden y brotan, fecundándolo todo.-Mamá de Leo”
― Alessandro d'Avenia, Bianca come il latte, rossa come il sangue

― Rachel Joyce, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry
