Quote by Anne Rice

“This darkness had a calming effect on me. The open country sank into a deep dark tinge of blue beneath the pearly heavens, and I could see the forests encroaching on the tilled land, creeping higher here and there, as the hills folded over one another or sank steeply into valleys of pure blackness.”

“Tal como a pandemia da covid-19, em sua lúgubre asserção das fragilidades e incertezas que nos cercam, essas narrativas vampirescas com viés epidêmico-apocalíptico convidam reflexões acerca do papel da humanidade na construção desses cruéis cenários de desastre; inevitavelmente, rumamos a um futuro pelo qual teremos de nos responsabilizar.”

“The person who knows you the best is you. We have eyes that watch ourselves. We know what we want. You need courage not to turn away from that. Even when it comes to our own problems, there are many times when we say, "I don't know," and fool ourselves. Because when we acknowledge we know something, we have to act on it, so we tell ourselves we don't. Many people hide inside of their "not-knowing" and, afraid of taking the risk, settle for mediocrity in their life. They imitate the same safe, easy life that other people walk. They mistake that for happiness and, inside of it, look for security. However, the moment that the defensive shields we've built up come down, all truths reveal themselves and speak to us. When we hear our inner voice and follow it, we can walk our own path.”
