Clarice Lispector
“What I’m writing to you is not for reading— it’s for being.”
Clarice Lispector, Água Viva

“You see, that which is exposed to the exterior... is smooth and dry and clean. That which is not... underneath, is slimy and filled with fungus and crawling with worms. It is another life that is parallel to the one we manifest. It's there. The way worms are underneath the stone. If you don't recognize it... (whispering) it eats you.-That is my opinion.-Well, who is ready for lunch?”
María Irene Fornés, Fefu and Her Friends

Elena Ferrante
“Become. It was a verb that had always obsessed me...I wanted to become, even though I had never known what. And I had become, that was certain, but without an object, without a real passion, without a determined ambition.”
Elena Ferrante, Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay

Virginia Woolf
“Let us again pretend that life is a solid substance, shaped like a globe, which we turn about in our fingers. Let us pretend that we can make out a plain and logical story, so that when one matter is despatched—love for instance—we go on, in an orderly manner, to the next. ”
Virginia Woolf , The Waves
