“Perchè la chiave di questa rivoluzione è trattarla come se stessimo danzando, tutti contemporaneamente in tutto il mondo, al suono della stessa musica, ognuno con i suoi passi. E ogni tanto ti fermi e ogni tanto ti stanchi, e c'è chi balla da dio e chi passa da un piede all'altro, e c'è chi guida e chi segue e chi si inventa coreografie e chi le riproduce, ma è un ballo che non finisce mai.”
― Giulia Blasi

“If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.”

“Girls are taught a lot of stuff growing up. If a guy punches you he likes you. Never try to trim your own bangs and someday you will meet a wonderful guy and get your very own happy ending. Every movie we see, Every story we're told implores us to wait for it, the third act twist, the unexpected declaration of love, the exception to the rule. But sometimes we're so focused on finding our happy ending we don't learn how to read the signs. How to tell from the ones who want us and the ones who don't, the ones who will stay and the ones who will leave. And maybe a happy ending doesn't include a guy, maybe... it's you, on your own, picking up the pieces and starting over, freeing yourself up for something better in the future. Maybe the happy ending is... just... moving on. Or maybe the happy ending is this, knowing after all the unreturned phone calls, broken-hearts, through the blunders and misread signals, through all the pain and embarrassment you never gave up hope.”

“Lei era così, rompeva equilibri solo per vedere in quali altri modi poteva ricomporli.”
― Elena Ferrante, L'amica geniale
