Quotes I like

Some of my favourite quotes.

• Esta coisa é a mais difícil de uma pessoa entender. Pois envolve o tempo. Insista. Não desanime.

  —Clarice Lispector (Brazilian writer, 1920—1977), O Relatório da Coisa

  • English translation by Katrina Dodson in Where You Were at Night, 2015:

    “This thing is the most difficult for a person to understand. Keep trying. Don’t get discouraged. It will seem obvious. But it is extremely difficult to know about it. For it involves time.”
