"Was the promise enough for me? A promise was enough for me." Menudo viaje !

Debo decir que me he pasao el libro deseando que se acabase. Se me ha hecho un tanto insoportable de leer, a la vez me ha encantado? no sabría decir y tampoco quiero darle muchas vueltas

"I know I'll need to be careful not to use furtively a new third leg that from me sprouts swiftly as weeds, and to call this protective leg a truth."

Sofía me dijo una vez que la esperanza es un medio, pero que no se puede vivir siempre de ella. "— I want the present without dressing it up with a future that redeems it, not even with a hope — until now what hope wanted in me was just to conjure away the present."
A través de esta lectura insufrible, he recordao sus palabras. No quiero sentir las cosas bajo el filtro de lo que podrán ser!! "I, who called love my hope for love."

"Hope for me was postponement. I had never let my soul free,"

Lispector deja ir la esperanza y acoge la confianza, se ha sentío precioso.

"More powerful than hope, more powerful than love? I was approaching something I think was — trust."
