Quote by Pepetela

“Raciocinamos em função da nossa sociedade, sociedade assimilada à cultura judaico-cristã europeia, em que o homem tem de ser ciumento, porque é o bode do rebanho e a muklher é a sua propriedade. No fundo, que acontece à propriedade que é arrrendada a outro? ás vezes até fica renovada, rejuvenescida, com um empate de capital e de trabalho. Mas nós não compreendemos isso. A mulher é uma propriedade especial. Temos uma geração de atraso. Nós, os citadinos, somos pretos por fora.”
