-Back there our sun doesn't speak.-Where's "there," Miss Marta?-Back there, in Europe. Here, it's different. Here, the sun moans, whispers, shouts.-Surely-I commented delicately-the sun is always the same.- You're wrong. There, the sun is a stone. Here it's a fruit.
Mia Couto
Listen, and you will realize that we are made not from cells or from atoms. We are made from stories.
Mia Couto
After us, there was no more world to receive anyone.
Mia Couto
