Fernanda Montenegro
“Era a Nossa Senhora da minha infância, do quadrinho na parede, da medalhinha. A propósito, sou mariana - com muita unção - porque vejo em Maria a primeira feminista poderosamente atuante ao dar a Deus a permissão de lhe gerar um filho nas entranhas: "Faça em mim segundo a Sua vontade".”
Fernanda Montenegro, Prólogo, ato, epílogo: memórias

João Cabral de Melo Neto
“Um galo sozinho não tece uma manhã:
êle precisará sempre de outros galos.
De um que apanhe êsse grito que êle
e o lance a outro; de um outro galo
que apanhe o grito que um galo antes
e o lance a outro; e de outros galos
que com muitos outros galos se cruzem
os fios de sol de seus gritos de galo,
para que a manhã, desde uma teia tênue,
se vá tecendo, entre todos os galos.

E se encorpando em tela, entre todos,
se erguendo tenda, onde entrem todos,
se entretendendo para todos, no tôldo
(a manhã) que plana livre de armação.
A manhã, toldo de um tecido tão aéreo
que, tecido, se eleva por si: luz balão.”
João Cabral de Melo Neto, Education by Stone: Selected Poems

Michelle Obama
“I've been lucky enough now in my life to meet all sorts of extraordinary and accomplished people - world leaders, inventors, musicians, astronauts, athletes, professors, entrepreneurs, artists and writers, pioneering doctors and researchers. Some (though not enough) of them are women. Some (though not enough) are black or of color. Some were born poor or have lives that to many of us would appear to have been unfairly heaped with adversity, and yet still they seem to operate as if they've had every advantage in the world. What I've learned is this: All of them have had doubters. Some continue to have roaring, stadium-sized collection of critics and naysayers who will shout I told you so at every little misstep or mistake. The noise doesn't go away, but the most successful people I know have figured out how to live with it, to lean on the people who believe in them, and to push onward with their goals.”
Michelle Obama, Becoming

Tara Westover
“It’s strange how you give the people you love so much power over you.”
Tara Westover, Educated

Elena Ferrante
“The title is Ulysses'
'Is it about the Odyssey?'
'No, it’s about how prosaic life is today.'
'And so?'
'That’s all. It says that our heads are full of nonsense. That we are flesh, blood, and bone. That one person has the same value as another. That we want only to eat, drink, fuck.”
Elena Ferrante, The Story of a New Name
