Quote by Emma Watson

“Beauty is not long hair, skinny legs, tanned skin or perfect teeth. Believe me. Beauty is the face of who cried and now smiles, beauty is the scar on your knee since you fell when you were a kid, beauty is the circles when love doesn't let you sleep, beauty is the expression on the face when the alarm rings in the morning, it's the melted makeup when you have a shower, it's the laughter when you make a joke you're the only one who can understand, beauty is meeting his gaze and stopping understanding, beauty is your gaze when you see him, it's when you cry for all you paranoias, beauty is the lines marked by time. Beauty is what we feel in the inside which also shows outside us. Beauty is the marks the life leaves on us, all the kicks and the caresses the memories leave us. Beauty is letting yourself live.”

“Chudi ne t’ « aide » pas quand il s’occupe de son enfant. Il fait ce qu’il est censé faire. Quand nous disons que les pères « aident », nous suggérons que s’occuper des enfants est un territoire appartenant aux mères, dans lequel les pères s’aventurent vaillamment. Ce n’est pas le cas. Tu imagines le nombre de personnes qui seraient aujourd’hui plus heureuses, plus stables, et qui contribueraient bien mieux à la société si leur père avait participé activement à leur enfance ?”

“Chudi ne mérite nulle louange ou gratitude particulières, et toi non plus d’ailleurs : vous avez tous les deux choisi de mettre un enfant au monde, et la responsabilité de cet enfant vous appartient à tous les deux à parts égales. Ce serait différent si tu étais mère célibataire, que ce soit par choix ou par la force des choses, parce que tu n’aurais pas alors la possibilité de « faire les choses ensemble ». Mais tu ne devrais pas agir en « mère célibataire » si tu n’en es pas réellement une.”

“Je me souviens que, petite, on me disait de « me baisser comme il faut pour balayer, comme une fille ». Ce qui signifiait que balayer était un truc de fille. J’aurais préféré qu’on me dise simplement : « baisse-toi et balaie comme il faut, parce que le sol sera plus propre ainsi. » Et j’aurais préféré qu’on dise la même chose à mes frères.”

“The duality that is inherent to us… A division of wills, of desires, which causes us to be inhabited by an internal struggle between various entities... What makes us a single being? If we are the synergy of the trillions of cells that inhabit us, which have evolved with the history of the Earth and our species through their adaptations, and that are in constant replacement and renewal throughout an individual's life.”

“A dualidade que nos é inerente… Uma divisão de vontades, de quereres, que faz com que sejamos habitados por uma luta interna entre diversas entidades… O que faz de nós um único ser? Se somos a sinergia entre as trilhões de células que nos habitam, que evoluíram com a história da terra e da nossa espécie através de suas adaptações, e que estão em constante substituição e renovação durante a vida de um indivíduo.”
