“Streets were quieter then. Dogs had the run of the town and children played outdoors. The side streets were for Simon Says and Green Light and Giant Step and other games. We set up our own carnivals. We told fortunes and sold coin purses that we made. But the buses on Wisteria Drive meant no one played outside my house. Even the dogs were wary except for one who only had three legs and still chased cars.”

“Stregobor, così va il mondo. Viaggiando si vedono tante di quelle cose. Due contadini si uccidono per una capezzagna in mezzo a un campo che l'indomani verrà calpestato dai cavalli delle squadre di due reggenti decisi ad assassinarsi a vicenda. Sugli alberi che costeggiano le strade dondolano gli impiccati, nei boschi i briganti tagliano la gola ai mercanti. Nelle città ci s'imbatte a ogni pie sospinto in cadaveri abbandonati nei canali di scolo. Nei palazzi ci si pugnala, nei banchetti c'è continuamente qualcuno che scivola sotto il tavolo, livido di veleno. Ci ho fatto l'abitudine. Perché dunque dovrebbe farmi impressione una minaccia di morte, per giunta nei tuoi confronti?”

“Strength comes in many disguises. Yes, it means being relentless and resilient, and holding up others when you can barely hold up yourself. But there’s more to it than showing power and control. It means having the ability to laugh at yourself and see your own flaws. It’s the confidence to walk away when it’s time, and not look back at what you left behind. It’s showing emotion when you feel it, and not faking it when you don’t. It’s sharing your wins with those who rode along with you, who never left your side and never will.”
