Clarice Lispector, A Breath of Life

Joan Didion

“The world's continual breathing is what we hear and call silence.”
Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G.H.

Clarice Lispector
“Holding someone's hand was always my idea of joy. Often before falling asleep - in that small struggle not to lose consciousness and enter the greater world - often, before having the courage to go toward the greatness of sleep, I pretend that someone is holding my hand and I go, go toward the enormous absence of form that is sleep. And when even then I can't find the courage, then I dream.”
Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G.H.
