“Relationships between women don’t have solid rules like those between men,” says the Italian author Elena Ferrante. “I was interested in recounting how a long friendship between two women could endure and survive in spite of good and bad feelings, dependence and rebellion, mutual support and betrayal.

maybe i’m too old to obsess over a fictional character but honestly idc

Sentia-se muito jovem; ao mesmo tempo indizivelmente velha. Penetrava em tudo como uma faca; ao mesmo tempo estava de fora, observando. Tinha uma sensação constante, enquanto olhava os táxis, de estar fora, longe, muito longe no mar e sozinha; sempre tinha a sensação de que era perigoso, perigosíssimo viver mesmo que fosse um único dia.

Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway (1925)

“Rising, streetcar, four hours in the office, meal, streetcar, four hours of work, Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday to the same rhythm- this path is easily followed. But one day the “why” arises and everything begins in that weariness..”

"Likewise, if Kafka wants to express the absurd, he will make use of consistency. You know the story of the crazy man who was fishing in a bathtub. A doctor with ideas as to psychiatric treatments asked him 'if they were biting', to which he received the harsh reply: 'Of course not, you fool, since this is a bathtub.' That story belongs to the baroque type. But in it can be grasped quite clearly to what a degree the absurd effect is linked to an excess of logic. Kafka's world is in truth an indescribable universe in which man allows himself the tormenting luxury of fishing in a bathtub, knowing that nothing can come of it" - Albert Camus
