“Vi só lágrimas e lágrimas. Entretanto, ela sorria feliz. Mas eram tantas lágrimas, que eu me perguntei se minha mãe tinha olhos ou rios caudalosos sobre a face. E só então compreendi. Minha mãe trazia, serenamente em si, águas correntezas. Por isso, prantos e prantos a enfeitar o seu rosto. A cor dos olhos de minha mãe era cor de olhos d'água. Águas de Mamãe Oxum! Rios calmos, mas profundos e enganosos para quem contempla a vida apenas pela superfície. Sim, águas de Mamãe Oxum.”
― Conceição Evaristo, Olhos d'Água
