Tu nous pénètres d'un plaisir qui ne s'explique point par le sens. Avec toi rentrent en nous tous les pouvoirs auxquels nous avions renoncé. Par ta grâce, s'ouvrent en nous toutes les sources taries de notre cœur. Tu es la plus grande richesse qui soit au monde, et tu es aussi la plus délicate, toi si pure au ventre de la Terre. On peut mourir sur une source d'eau magnésienne. On peut mourir à deux pas d'un lac d'eau salée. On peut mourir malgré deux litres de rosée qui retiennent en suspend quelques sels. Tu n'acceptes point de mélange, tu ne supportes point l'altération, tu es une ombrageuse divinité. Mais tu répands en nous un bonheur infiniment simple."
Author: Antoine De Saint Exupéry

On the wings of an owl the fallen Congo came to haunt even our little family, we messengers of goodwill adrift on a sea of mistaken intentions."

Hold it together."

25. "The theme of invisibility has haunted me for many years, since earliest girlhood. A woman often feels ‘invisible' in a public sense precisely because her physical being - her ‘visibility' - figures so prominently in her identity. She is judged as a body, she is ‘attractive' or ‘unattractive', while knowing that her deepest self is inward, and secret: knowing, hoping that her spiritual essence is a great deal more complex than the casual eye of the observer will allow… it might be argued that all persons, defined to themselves rather more as what they think and dream than what they do, are ‘invisible'."
Author: Joyce Carol Oates

26. "The real thinkers of the world aren't the best dressed. Staying on top of the latest fashions, accessorizing, and presenting oneself is time consuming.

30. "We have more patience for girls who act like boys than boys who act like girls. A tomboy is considered cute. One day she'll shuck her muddy jeans and put on a dress, and everyone will gasp at her beauty. They'll all laugh about her tree-climbing, frog-catching days. But there's no such tolerance for the boy who puts on a dress, who wants a toy kitchen or a baby doll to love. Jung would say that this is because, even culturally, our anima is repressed, hated, derided. We hate our female selves. A boyish girl is perfectly acceptable. A girlish boy? Not so much. In certain places, you'd get your ass kicked, find yourself "gay-bashed."

48. "Sim, devo ter sentido a pergunta sobre quais as formas de arte maiores e menores. Há uma corrente única de vida que atravessa todo o existente – incluídas portanto também as pedras. Mas tem sentido graduarem-se as formas que ela manifestar. Enquanto vida, ela é igual no homem ou numa minhoca. Mas diferencia-se pela sua complexidade. Não há menos arte, enquanto arte, numa tela de Rembrandt e numa cerâmica de Estremoz. Mas a complexidade de ambos fala uma voz diferente nesse ser complexo. E se compararmos um género de arte com outro? Um quadro com uma música ou um romance com um bailado, ou um filme com uma catedral? Onde se demarca a complexidade ou a carga humana que suportam? Qual deles diz mais? Qual deles diz melhor? Em que parte de nós isso se diferencia? Isso se afere? Não me perguntes. Porque a resposta está apenas no saldo que em ti ficou no que em ti existiu para elas. E ninguém sabe se o saldo maior não foi simplesmente o da música de um cego numa esplanada ao sol..."
